Dear Liana
Dear Liana*,
How do you do?
It’s been years
Since I’ve talked to you
I used to feel
Like I was to blame
Because inside,
We both were the same
But somehow you lost
The will to keep fighting
And that is the reason
That I began writing
To cope with the loss
To heal the pain
But I know what you did
Was not done in vain
What you did wasn’t selfish
You were lost and confused
Your thoughts were so dark
You didn’t know what to do
I forgive you, Liana
For how you left me
Recovering is hard
But I know you’ve been freed
