stab in the back


I want to rip my throat out so I can never say a thing like that again, tear off my fingers limb by limb.

Why did I just destroy one of the only things I care about? How could even think such selfish and cruel thoughts?

You are the strongest person I know, taking what I said and hardly letting it show. No apology will ever suffice, the pain I have caused in your life.

A side of me, not even I knew, a creep, an inconsiderate fool.

How do I make this right? Or is that already too late? I wouldn’t judge you if you are filled with hate.

Beat me, break me it’s what I deserve. Not a friend like you, not one I have hurt.
