Letters to a broken soul
I need to find the words
to comfort you of your heartbreak.
I'd write you a single letter as long as a book
if it makes you forget what she did.
I'm never thinking of myself.
I find myself thinking of you too much,
more than I really should.
But still, what can I say?
I could say a variety of things
about how sorry I am she did that to you...
again...
Yes, she abused you.
She abused every part of you.
I'm sorry that she did that to you.
again.
I feel sympathy that you loved her so much
and she took advantage of you.
You used three words that have never been used in the same context
and came out of your mouth.
You meant those words.
And once they're said you can't take them back.
That might be the thing that hurts you the most
But what do I know, right?
I've never opened myself up but to two people.
and one hurt me-
just as bad as you've been hurt, yourself.
As soon as you're over her,
I promise I'll say
Finally.
just like you did just last week for what I had gotten over.
Do you want to know the other person I've opened myself up to?
It's not my mother like you might suspect
or my best girlfriend who I entrust with my life.
You know him closely.
Can you guess who he is?
I really don't think you get it even now.
I don't think you grasp
or understand
how much you helped me.
I can't repay you
but by doing the same in return.
If you're not done
if you're not ready to let go of her
tell me and I'll understand.
There's no rushing.
I'm not rushing you.
And if you don't want me to help at all...
tell me and I'll understand.
I guess expressing my feelings isn't so hard after all.
I didn't write a book,
but here you go.
As I said, it's not a book or a letter.
But it's all I have to say.
to comfort you of your heartbreak.
