U

U filled me with nothingness;
pouring your transgressions on me
because you knew, with open arms, I would accept it.
to my first love, forgive me for I knew not what I had done.
instead you have punished me every day since;
you would mark me with a scarlet letter,
then defend and shield me from the hate and pain.
to my one true love, i will continue to forgive you because you need it more than me.
and i’ll always love you because you need it more than me, too.
