“If I Am Not Worth Your Apology” by Najwa Zebian


 

If I am not worth your apology,

you are not worth me carrying

the pain that you caused me.

So I will forgive you, not for you

but for me.

I deserve to let go.

I deserve to be free of your pain.

and if you

can’t admit your own mistakes,

I will not allow the ashes that your pain

turned me into

to hold me hostage.
