I want you to know
You’re not invisible.
I can see you,
Gaze into your tattered soul
And relate to your pain.
I want you to know
I’m aware you miss the melody of laughter
That you long for carefree silence.
I want you to know
I harbor the utmost respect for you
That I want to embrace you protectively.
I want you to know
We’re not different you and I,
That I’m aware life’s cruel fingers are more tightly wrapped around you.
I want you to know
You’re beautiful.
That your courage has exceeded the limits of my possibility.
I want you to know
I anger at myself when I treat you badly,
My insecurities mask my sincere intentions.
I want you to know I am sincerely, completely and devotedly sorry.
