And you? Can't you forgive? Was the pain too harsh? Were they really that cruel to you? It's okay. Can you at least make them irrelevant to you for now? Can you move past the trauma? You deserve to be loved with the best form of honesty, and with every bit of permanence this temporary world has to offer. Can you be brave and choose healing for you? The world looks selfish I know. People can be bad with communication sometimes. People can be selfish because their vision is blinded by their own insecurities and issues. There are things you still don't know about them. There are matters they don't know how to handle. And none of it is your fault. Can you promise to choose yourself this time?
