Note

Sorry I had to go.

Sorry I couldn’t live in consistent pain.

Sorry I had trouble dealing with the way we lived our lives.

Sorry that it was hard to grasp the life.

 

I’m sorry I was unable to reach my full potential at the young age I was.

I’m sorry I was unable to illustrate or communicate my true feelings.

I’m sorry for the debt I left you in.

I’m sorry for the pain I have left you in.

 

Please know that I had to do this,

I had to do this for me.

Many times, throughout my life I do many things for others,

Now it was time to do something for me.

 

It felt right. It felt like an answer. A completion. My choice.

I’m sorry for the evidence of no reasons.

I’m sorry that it will never be the same.

I’m sorry for a vacant spot that will be at the dinner table.

 

Sorry that I was unable to end the famine.

Sorry that I was unable to end the wars.

Sorry that I was unable to declare world peace.

Sorry that I was unable to grow old with you.

 

I’m sorry I had to go.

I’m sorry I had to leave this way.

I hope you’ll still love me.

As I will love you forever.
