To A Past Love, I Never Meant To Hurt You, But An Apology May Be Too Late.

By Josh MorganPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Please tell me I'm not the villain in your story.

Please tell me it was the guy before me, that did you so dirty and not me. Please don't tell me it was me because honestly, hurting you would hurt me, and I really do say that in all honesty. I remember always telling you that you could always call me but I know you blocked me, unfollowed me. Now, sadly, I'm forced to follow the signs in front of me. Honestly, I don't like what I'm seeing, and now I can only focus on what's behind me. Please tell me they're guiding me incorrectly because I don't want to follow them. Please tell me somebody misplaced them.

Please tell me that I'm not a bad memory. I don't exactly want you to miss me, I just hope I'm a good memory. I'm not telling you to marry me, I'm just want you to tell me I was better that that guy that came after me. I know you wont be forgetting me so easily. I hope that's not a bad thing. I hope that if you were to see me randomly you'd greet me gladly and not hide your face. Because honestly, that'd be sad to see.

I honestly don't know what I did, but I'm sorry. I know I'm asking for a lot and I'm sorry, I don't want to seem greedy. I just hope that if you ever thought of me it was happily. Because honestly, I just want to see you happy, even if it's not with me. I just don't want to be the villain in your story.

About the Creator

Josh Morgan

Personally, writing began as a creative outlet, to be a means of processing and venting emotion, but it has become so much more. Something I want not to be just relatable, enjoyable and a good read, but to reach someone who is in need.
