My apology love

A broken heart is the hardest to heal,
and every attempt is a layer to peel.

The words that I speak to a soul so lost,
is a treacherous path most tried to cross.

The things I had to see only made me more bold,
from the slits and the blood to the stories she's told.

Her past and her demons put me to tears,
my comforting words "I'll always be here".

This isn't goodbye or even a tragedy,
this is my guilt and sincere apology.

I couldn't stand by and watch your life waste away,
I pray you'll forgive me so the guilt no longer stays.
