I am sorry to everyone I hurt when I was battling my demons.

The truth is Ive messed up.

I burn and I crash and in the process I put some people on fire.

I hurt them too.

My demons are not always inside, sometimes you too see their faces.

You too see their darkness.

I am still learning how to keep your heart safe when mine is breaking.

People give you some of their poison too and I guess I am learning to be okay with that.

I am learning to accept that life comes in full circle, where we all taste each others bitterness.

I am learning that we must forgive each other for our mistakes.

I am learning to ask myself about their pain too.

I am learning to let go.

I am learning that sometimes people hurting only means I need help.

I know pain can be ugly.

Sometimes pain is unkind and I am sorry that you had to witness that.

You and I are not perfect beings but we must learn to navigate our murkiness.

We must make a run at protect anothers heart.

After all, isnt love about keeping anothers heart sheltered and intact?
