The Letter Your Mother Never Wrote

I was wrong.
It is not for me to say who you should love, Nor should I feel inclined to set the perimeters of your relationship.

I was foolish.
I see now that I should not have tried to punish you, Nor was it right that I should attempt to punish all humankind for my own mistakes.

I was blind to the truth.
That you left on your own volition, abandoned me, is something I could never accept. Yet, here I still sit, alone.

Even more so,
I am sorry. Though in my heart I know the words have come too late.
I am sorry.
