    I'm sorry you're saying sorry again

    The hardest lessons I’ve learned
    The hardest lessons to learn in general,
    Are the ones I feel ive truely earned,
    As I still bear the scars from how my heart burned.

    The only turning point i know
    From the crying in cemeteries alone to the empty dial tone on the other side of the phone
    Some people use people
    And its something I was repetitively shown,
    But the hardest lesson to get to know
    Are the ones you will be repetitively given
    History repeating itself, you’ll be made to relive it .

    They treated you like your humanity was a resource
    Not a person , less than a human being
    Until you were drained and crying in pain
    Feeling the shame for life’s disdain.
    I’m sorry you chose the wrong people.
    I’m sorry they played with your feelings
    As if your mind and emotions were a game of solitaire but they chose to cut in.
    Im sorry you Learned that even if they say they are,
    Not everyone is your friend
    And they were holding the knife again

    But You did it again
    And again,
    And again,
    Feeling like a Foolish girl
    Who thought she had a place in the world, to make amends.
    Filled with happiness laughter and friends
    Only to find out she wasn’t worth it in the end.
    I’m sorry youre the only one saying sorry again.

    • Megan, this poem breaks my heart for you. It is so unfair that people use your kindness and open-heartedness for their own gain without any concern for how it makes you feel. Don’t let these kinds of people defeat you or break your spirit! Let your experiences make your light shine brighter. Thank you for sharing your experience!
