Goodbye

Dear Cody,

I'm not sure where to start,

What words that I want to tell you.

Last I saw you,

I was so broken.

I thought it was all disappearing.

But now, I see

I was wrong.

I was wrong to hold you

On that pedestal so high up.

I was wrong to change myself

To fit your interests.

I was wrong to turn a blind eye

To all that you'd done wrong.

I was wrong to say

It was all my fault.

But I'll still wonder.

I'll wonder if you'll remember me

As years continue to pass us by.

I'll wonder how you've changed

After we parted ways.

I'll wonder if you ever

truly liked me back then.

I can't bring it in myself

To hate you for what you've done.

I don't think you ever realized

the impact this had on me.

How this left me

with scars littering my heart.

I've met new people here.

They all support me

The way you never did.

It's hard to open myself up

And talk about what happened.

But they're willing to wait for me

And give me the time I need.

I'm thankful to you.

For letting me learn more

About myself.

But now I think

I need to let you go.

I wish you the best

In your future.

Your friend,

Leilani
