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
