breaking things
write about the thing that broke your heart
You
You tore it apart
You say you're sorry
You say you meant it
but you wish it didn't hurt me.
I think it's true
everything you said
but it still hurts.
it still makes me cry and sob
it still makes me clutch my chest
it still knocks the air out of me
even if it is true.
truth hurts even if we all know it's true.
you still broke my heart
and I wish you wouldn't say you're sorry
when i know you're just going to do it again.
You say you're sorry
You say you mean it
I say I'm sorry
I wish it meant what I want it to mean
I'm sorry I broke your heart
I know you're sorry you broke mine.

Thank you for liking and reposting this @FiaA
It's more theraputic for me to write about this then it is for me to talk out loud about this.

I totally understand @SaffiyaSmith I loved this poem of yours! It says so much about our own condition
