Heather Huff

I remember the email Asking about seeing stars I casually remarked no Callous, not realizing the scars But many years later While pondering my past life Realized so many mistakes Again cutting like a knife Heather I'm so so sorry I was so young and naive I didn't know much back then And past hurts I can't unweave There were also many pressures Peer and immaturity That shouldn't have been Was my insecurity I wish I had known better I wish back then I knew more Things could have been different A different outcome explore I'm so sorry I hurt you I'm sorry you had to cry I'm sorry your heart had to break And all the scars they apply I look back and really wish That these times could be redone I could make the right decisions It'd be perfect for everyone But time is an evil bandit Who steals many precious things Things that are irreplaceable Regardless of the pain it brings Now I don't know where you are And my searches all incomplete The regret I am left with My apology met with defeat Wanted to admit there were stars And how special you were to me You deserved way more then I gave You needed to be loved now I see So here is my apology But you deserve so much more Wish I could fix things broken But it is too late I'm sure
