I am sorry I hurt you
I didn’t know what I was doing
I was still learning
about dating
relationships
and myself
I made bad decisions
because of fear
and attention
I broke your heart
for that I am sorry
I hope you are happier
now that some time has passed
maybe one day
we could be friends

I didn’t know I could feel like this again
I thought I’d lost that giddy hope
the swirling butterflies
daydreams of a life together
you make me feel safe
taken care of
secure
you brought back a piece of me
broken by another

you bring me peace

I am grateful for the night we met
hours of conversation and
tension building
until our lips touched and I felt
your skin on mine
I felt safe with you that night
and every night with you since
nobody can hurt me
with your arms wrapped around me
