From Me

Lately my heart has hurt about you, but not in any negative way. In a way that scared me and the day after I dropped acid you tried to talk to me about things but… You deserve an explanation, so this is from me. Just a thought out and real version.

The incidents with you were the only “Violent” type things I’ve ever done. That excuses nothing, I’m just putting that out there. I don’t want to hurt you. I don’t want to scare you, and if you really are scared then I really want to hold your heart and stop being such a dick.

I guess when I was with you we did a lot of drugs and were always together and that took over my mind, and I was completely different all of those times. Stepping away and being able to see all of that from this point of view I can see that I only pushed myself like that when I was with you, which isn’t really something I noticed. The days I spend not worry about you are happy and healthy, and I’ve learned so much even from the broken shambles of my past and I live beautifully. I live gracefully, and think of you nearly every day. I think of the things you’ve taught me about perspective, and music especially. I miss our bond and I miss everything we went through. I only wish that it didn’t hurt us to be broken up. I want you to feel safe but I don’t know how to make it clear. I don’t know how to say things to make up for things. I don’t know what to tell you when it comes to how I hurt you or anything I’ve done, and I wish I knew. I wish I had perfect alibis and safe words. I wish I could make you believe it but you need to believe that none of this will happen again. But I’m giving you my word, and on all the honesty I have. I’m saying these words to try to even just kiss a wound but I wish my words were stronger and I wish I could help you past this. It’s a horrible situation.

We can’t be in each other’s lives it seems, but I’m never going to go into yours unpresidented.
