Please forgive me.....

I remember the look in your eyes that day when you realized what I had done. Your pretty face was red with anger and you were at a loss for words. You didn't need to say anything, anyway, because I saw it all in your eyes- betrayal, disillusionment, revulsion.
In that moment, *I just wanted to crawl under a rock somewhere and hide.* But now that I understand the gravity of what I've done, *my actions have filled me with self-loathing and remorse.*
It's difficult for me to look in the mirror and *I'm not proud of the man I see there when I do.*
```*I am sorry.*```
I don't want you to think that I'm saying those words lightly. I really mean them. I am so sorry. I know that what I did was wrong and I know that it hurt you deeply. I'm not sure what I was thinking, but I do know that I never wanted to hurt you.
*I wish I could take it back, but I can't.* All I can do is try to show you how much I regret what I've done and *ask for your forgiveness.*
```*I love you.*```
Please believe me. I love you for your giving nature, for helping me through my life, for staying up late; for the long walks; for talking about dreams and fears and hopes and hurts.
*We've shared so much. Let's share healing, too.*
Please forgive me,
Please love me as you did in the past....
Please let me forgive myself,
Please let me love myself as I did in the past.....
Please, please, please....
🙏
