Dear You,

Dear you,

The one I haven't forgiven.

The one that broke me.

The one that left me scarred.

The one that keeps me up all night 

and my mind aimlessly wondering about

what went wrong..

 

Yeah, dear you,

You broke me. 

You scarred me. 

You left me. 

You destroyed me…

but above all

You taught me. 

 

You taught me what love is

and what it’s not.

You taught me what I’m worth 

and what you're not. 

You taught me when to fight 

and when to not.

You taught me.

 

They say time heals,

but what is time..

A day

A week

A month 

A year

A lifetime…

 

At some point,

life has to move on again.

Away from the pain,

the emptiness,

the sadness,

the loneliness,

the sorrow.  

 

And maybe so it will,

the sun will shine again and

the heart with beat again.

But until then,

dear you,

The one I haven't forgiven. 

The one who broke me.
