üzgünüm

I wish I could say

How sorry I felt.

Though with how things came to the way they are, trust me

My apology no longer matters.

Despite how much I really am.

No longer do I need you to understand

nor do I need to understand

I watched you slide away and you watched me lie awake.
And at the light of day,
we lost our optimism.

May you keep on thinking

that it was only childish,

foolish,

and nothing but self-sabotaging naivety.

You’d say “Too young too stupid”

While I’d wish to say, Young hearts

speak giant leaps of truth.

My truth is,

that I was ready to die for you

doesn’t mean I’m ready to stay.

Anyway

There no longer is a “we,” like you made crystal clear.

Don’t Slip
