The Final Letter

Look in your Heart

By Sender Jeannestal Published 2 years ago Updated 6 months ago 1 min read

I don't have any intention of hurting you, so I'm sorry if I do

I'm the kind of flower that matures with thorns, so I'm sorry if I bloomed.

I can see why you're scared but I can't see why you should be

I planted roses in your garden to match your beauty

I gave you light when your path was dark

I showed you that we're all criminals; some of us just haven't been caught

I went to the store in your mind, but it wasn't love that I brought

Can I return it still, even if I didn't keep the receipt?

It's your heart not your sorrow that I want to keep.

Maybe I'm wrong for the things I did, but I never lied to you

So accept me when I say this I love you.

I've done too much to try to convince you

But if you're still questioning the love I give, then I'm sorry I ever gave it

I wouldn't want to waste an opportunity to be loved by someone like you but I've done my part

If you ever want to find me

Look in your heart.
