To all the exes I hurt

I’m sorry for all the hurt I caused,

For all the lonely nights apart,

All the times I put you down,

All those smiles that turned into frowns,

I didn’t know better at the time,

Didn’t consider what I was saying would hurt you deep inside,

I ruined a man that meant more than life to me,

Now I can’t help but think that your heart bleeds,

I’m sorry for all the things I can’t take back,

I know the words I said felt like a back stab,

With a million shards of broken glass,

Things that will forever haunt my past,

I’m sorry for all the harm I brought upon,

For all the moments that once was,

All the memories that were ruined,

For a second of misusage,

Missed connections and missed experiences,

All for a misunderstanding and selfish antics,

I’m sorry for breaking you down,

I don’t know how to turn it around,

I know I can’t take it back,

If I could, I would recant,

I’ve broken many hearts and damaged many souls,

I don’t want to look back, for my life is no longer whole.

This is my apology to those I’ve done wrong,

Please know once you were my number one.
