An Open Letter To The One I Hurt
  Dear my friend,
  It started with a simple hello,
  And ended with no goodbye,
  There was a time I hurt you,
  And for years my selfishness never understood why,
  For now I have matured, and now I do,
  Understand the great amount of pain I caused you,
  As regret builds up inside,
  It creates a tidal wave in my heart,
  Of which I wish you could feel,
  So you'd know my apology is genuine and real,
  Even though the once regular messages
  Turned into sporadic hellos,
  I miss what we once had,
  I remember the day we met,
  In October of 2013,
  Over a URL,
  It didn't feel like a connection over the web,
  I felt as if I knew you forever instead,
  On the lonely night that made me fear,
  You reassured me everything will be alright,
  Helping me sleep through the darkest of nights,
  I hope your life is well,
  As a hole in mine will never be filled,
  Because of a friendship,
  That was more than real,
  I miss you,
  I miss you a lot,
  I wish you could come back,
  If you don't,
  I understand why,
  I just want to rebuild,
  The friendship I destroyed,
  I know you'll never trust me again,
  But I'll always trust you,
  I'll always remember you,
  As my best friend,
  A brother I never had,
  I am sorry I hurt you,
  I am sorry I lied,
  I wish I could kill,
  The pain I caused inside
  With all the best,
  The person who misses the friendship we had

I wrote this when I realized how much I hurt a friend. A bit too late I supose. But there isn't a day that goes by that I don't miss him
