the 3 a.m text

i'm sorry i expected too much from you...
i'm sorry i expected you to hold my heart or what was left of it without shattering it
i'm sorry i thought you could fill the void my father left when he walked out on my mother and i
i'm sorry i believed you could somehow mend me and make me
whole
from where could you have found the pieces to my puzzle?
how could you mend things when all you're father showed you was how to break them?
a plate
a glass
a door
your mother's arm
what made me think you could hold me? that you could save me?! that you could tell me who i was and could become?!
you were just a beautiful boy with a sad soul.
I'm sorry I tried to make a home out of you.
