“I am sorry, that you felt hurt today
And I couldn’t soothe the pain
I’m sorry, for each loss you faced
I know things just are not the same
I fear you’ve taken turns these days
That push us all away
Those who love and care for you
Despite the mistakes we’ve made
I hope you smile tomorrow
Even if it’s without me there
And that you experience joy
I think that’s only fair
I threw this paper plane
With notes I couldn’t say
As I woke up this morning without you
And no note to fade the pain
See your words mean so much to me
And that’s why you left not one
My words have lost their value
That’s why I think we’re done
This paper plane won’t find you
But it will reach somebody still
And I hope they’ll find the courage when needed
To express how they truly feel
So if you’re reading this, I guess that it’s okay
And don’t bother looking for its owner
I’ve gone my separate way
Just learn from the lines I have written here
If you’ve caused somebody pain
Mend their heart, take the time
To fix the things you break.”
That’s what was written in this paper plane, written out for Jade. But It made me find the courage to find the words to say…
