For the tears you've cried
for the confusion and the hurt
for the times i've shut you out
and walked away
the times i turned my back
and then begged you to stay
for all i've destroyed
for all i have to rebuild
for the trust i betrayed
and the pain i caused
I can only say i'm sorry.
But every tear you've cried
i've matched
and all the hurt i caused
i felt a thousand times over
the wounds that are now healing for you
are still bleeding for me
for my turned back
i've suffered your silence
for the times i begged you to stay
i feared you'd walk away
all i must rebuild
and the trust i must regain
will take precious time we may not have
But though i may fail
though things may never be the same
i will fight anyway
i will try and if i fall just try again
i will take a leap of faith
and the risk of falling
because you mean the world to me
and i will not let things end this way.
Becuase I love you.
Author notes
I wrote this as an apology to a friend and a promise that i would try to repair the friendship i damaged so much. I hurt her very much and for that i have to suffer the knowledge that she doesn't trust me anymore and i know that's something that will take a lot of time to get back. But i refuse to let our friendship go down the drain cos i love her more than anything and i'm determined to repair all the damage i've caused.

Thankyou very much for your comment, it is appreciated. When you've caused as much pain as i have there really is not much you can SAY except sorry. But as you put it, i'm putting my money where my mouth is and i'm fighting for this friendship. Thankyou. Meg.

I hope your friends read this ! its really cute and lovely piece.You made me speechless girl !!!! Good written and keep it up !

Good gosh! If all you were going to say is your sorry, and there is nothing wrong with that, I would say that your chances of re-acquiring a friendship, this friendship, were slight.
But you plan to put your money where your mouth is, as it were.
Whatever does happen, I would certainly like to have a friend such as yourself! You are in earnest, and sincere. A dynamic duo!
Good luck and chins up!!!

Thankyou for your thoughtful comment. I think you're right, people do hurt people for revenge a lot of the time. I didn't hurt my friend out of revenge but i did hurt her by trying to hide how i felt by hurting. You were right about that. So thankyou for your comment.

We've all been hurt before, and I don't know if this is the case, but alot of time we hurt people out of revenge. Whether it be something they did to us, or something that somebody else did to us in the past. Relationships are often played like games, and somebody is always attempting to maintain the upper hand by sometimes hiding the way they feel through doing hurtful things, and saying hurtful things, anyways, very good write, full of emotion, and worthy apology letter if i've ever seen one, Crackertl82
