Forgiven me

for English we had to write a free verse, and i thought i would put it up on here as well. I miss you Court, always.

I know you have forgiven me

Please forgive me,
For I know what I’ve done wrong.
I left you alone, to become and to grow.
No warning that I would be leaving, for I did not know myself.
Please forgive me,
For my intention was not to put you in misery.

Please forgive me,
For I know what I’ve done hurts.
I know that you sit up at night and pray to me when you’re in pain.
I know you feel guilt for not saying more that night,
I know you feel guilt for not calling and making it known.
Please forgive me,
For it is not your fault.

Please forgive me,
For I know times are hard.
I taught you all I knew from stubbornness to having a large heart.
But sometimes, even the strongest people, fall apart.
Please forgive me,
For I did not mean to leave you in turmoil.

Please forgive me,
For I know I haven’t been the one to wipe your tears.
The times you cried over your first boy to saying goodbye to Sophie.
I did not mean to leave your hands unwoven with mine.
Please forgive me,
For I fought a hard battle; and did not come out the victor.

I know you have forgiven me,
For all the nights you have told me that you love me, and miss me.
I know you know I didn’t mean to create what I did.
I know you know I didn’t mean to put you in misery or turmoil.
And I know you know that I wipe your tears in ways you cannot see.
I know you have forgiven me.
