We fit each other like puzzle pieces that at first glance you would never put together, but if you turned them a different way they fit just right. At least that was the story I told myself.

“Self-Love"
Of all the people I’ve ever hurt in this world,
I’ve been most cruel to you.
I should have protected you,
Shielded you from harm,
Believed you when you hinted that something was
wrong.
I should have chosen you,
But I always chose the others.
I should have built you up,
But I’ve let you break down over time.
An apology I owe,
But please know
I’m a work in progress and
I’m still learning
That self-love isn’t selfish
When in the right dosage.
I’m sorry that you suffered through my deficiency.”
