1 For Opal

I apologize if things may have been misconstrued,

But I am grateful for the time we shared.

I will always admire you so just know what I say is true,

Because the world can be a cold place especially when it seems like no ones cares.

I will never truly understand why you been hurt so much,

& I certainly can't change the past.

But I absolutely tried to treat you in a way that you deserve as such,

By giving you some TLC that hopefully will forever last.

I hope my touch soothed your wounds & my words eased your mind,

While my presence brought you relaxation.

I just wanted to provide that care that you yearned for over time,

Because you deserve peace & happiness without temptation.

Even though life strayed us down 2 different paths in life,

In my mind, you will always be that person with a heart that is pure & noble.

Just please don't let the pain pierce through your heart life a sharp knife,

Because life is too short to just dwell in one place & I know because I just left my pain as I write this 1 For Opal.
