Sorry

To Those from My Past

What I wanted to say:

I am sorry if I ever hurt you.

I am sorry that I was selfish.

I am sorry that I was careless.

I am sorry for being stupid and immature.

Back then,

I thought the world revolved around me.

You were in it, but

all that mattered was me.

Me, getting attention.

Me, getting what I wanted.

Me, being happy.

Me, not hurting.

I never stopped to think of you.

I know I said a lot things.

Many of which I did not mean.

I know I can't take it back,

but I can apologize for being the old me.

About the Creator

Esme Alvarez

I started writing as a way of getting things off my chest or head. It makes me feel a little less crazy. To those that are living in fear due to mental illness: you are strong, you are a warrior and you are not alone.
