to the one i call my little one

to the one i call my little one,
im really sorry for all the things ive done.
to the one i call my little one,
you really didn’t deserve any of this, to be exact, none.

im sorry i did those things behind,
im sorry i betrayed you.
im sorry i didn’t stand in your shoes,
im sorry, i really am.

if only time could be undone, i’d go back to the day i was one.
i’d whisper in his ear so softly and gently,
telling him of all things to be done.

“love her with all your heart mind and soul,
hold on to her with all your might.
be daring with her, be bold you must.
look at her with conviction,
and then gently, tell her that we are one.

because anyone else doesn’t matter to you,
no one else will.
don’t waste your time searching high and low,
because from 13, you will know.”

don’t give up faith and hope.
don’t lose sight of what we have.
keep your head up again i say,
because world, here we come.

i don’t want us to turn into monsters. i don’t want to bring out the worst in us. its tough to forgive and even tougher to forget. im thankful for you, yesterday, today, tomorrow. hold my hand and walk with me, because im not letting go. i love you truly, my little one.
