You hate yourself for it.

You look at your reflection like you are the worst person in the entire world.

It keeps you up at night as you toss and turn overcome with regret.

Because you know they did not deserve the pain you caused.

When you hurt someone you care about all you do is look back regretting it.

You dwell in the past knowing you jeopardized a future.

God & Man

Its knowing you broke their confidence in you.

Its knowing you ruined the relationship.

When you hurt someone you care about you break your own heart for having done so.

And everyone might point at you saying you are at fault.

You made that choice.

But its a choice thats going to haunt you for a long time.

And you wish you could go back.

You wish it never happened.

But sometimes lifes greatest lessons are learned the hard way.

Sometimes it takes losing someone or something you care a lot about so you can grow.

But sometimes there are mistakes that arent as easily forgivable.

Sometimes no matter how much good you might do, people only remember the mistakes you make.

Sometimes you do something and theres no way you could go back to where you were.

Sometimes sorry isnt enough to fix it.

And sometimes you cut your fingers more trying to restore something like that.

So you pick up and you move on the best you’ve got the option to.

But it still hurts.

The best thing it’s possible for you to do is learn to forgive yourself.

Because there isnt enough regret or sorrow that can change what has happened.
