Overdue Apology to a Friend

A person I shared no physical space

Was still able to overtake my soul

Despite memory of his voice and face

Fading from my mind, there remains a hole

That has stayed vacant since that day I read

Those words that shattered my stability

Lay weeping as my only friend had fled

Last shred of hope became inability

To see I only had myself to blame

For even when hurt is not on purpose

My actions still wounded you all the same

The scars I gave you go far past dermis

Now, I only have one thing left to say

I’m sorry old friend, I hope you’re okay.
