letter to k

i hurt you
though that was never my intent
i thought we talked it through
but you’re as far as you can get
i made a mistake
a mistake that saved me
an error that changed my life
i hope you never know
what it’s like to lose hope
despair and depression
down the darkest hole
maybe you do
and if maybe that’s so
let’s find our way back
or we lose out as a whole
brother, please hear me
because, as things stand
it seems you’re only plan
is to continue to be
resentful, sometimes mean
but i know inside you
is a man who understands
who can open his mind
just enough
to let a sister back in
