I know you’ve hurt people.
Perhaps a lot of them.
Maybe even the ones who cared for you, who waited for you.
You hurt people who loved you.
They gave you a second chance and you blew it.
You did that, didn’t you?
I know you’re nodding your head.
But don’t worry.
There’s a way to be good again.
If you think you’ve lost them, start looking for them.
Try making amends.
Call them.
Listen to their voice.
Maybe even their silence.
Remind yourself that there was a time when they mattered.
You need to get them back.
Tell them you need them.
Don’t assume that they know.
Cause even if they do, sometimes people need to hear it.
You say it’s hard.
It’s hard to make amends.
But it was harder for them when you hurt them.
Just remember that.
Do what it takes, god damn it.
Please don’t let them slip away.
Save them the pain.
Call them.
There’s always a way to be good again.
