Maybe not to you

I forgive you so easily, it’s almost like I don’t believe I deserve an apology. Like my love should be enough to overlook the hurt. I quiet my feelings before they find their voice, because I’m afraid asking for “sorry” might push you away. But the truth is, I still carry what I never asked you to heal. And even in love, I think it’s okay to want someone to notice that. To care enough to say, “I’m sorry I hurt you.” Not because I demand it, but because I matter, too.... Maybe not to you
