Apology

I don't know how you can be so mean

Though you have every right to be angry with me

My friends say you are bitter and you are a jerk

But I know you better

We agreed that this break up was a good thing

That we were not right for each other

Sure, I could've ended it differently

Or tried harder to make it work

Or said things differently

Or been a better person overall

But you know me

You used to know me the best out of anyone

You shouldn't be so mean to me

It's okay that you have hurt feelings

or you do not want anything to do with me

We have history together

We can't just forget that

Our more recent history is bitter and bad

that shouldn't stop either one of us to be civil to one another

I am giving you an olive branch

I don't want to be friends

But I do not want to be your enemy

Just take the branch, lets make amends

I'll apologize first, I'm sorry for the things I said

and I'm sorry for the things I did.

I know I should have done some things differently.

I can not change the past

and you can't either

So let's just accept it and move on with both of our lives

There are two sides to every story and I am sticking with mine

I won't change mine to make you feel better.

I'll let you stick with yours.

And if you can't accept that apology

then I have no idea what you want me to do.

Maybe eventually I'll get it right

or maybe you won't get what you want out of me

let's just be civil.

forget the things we said in the past

and make the future better for both of us

so you don't remember me as the cold hearted bitch

and I don't remember you as the bitter jerk.

Okay?
