“Gentle love does not force healing. It waits softly beside it.”
There is a tenderness in you that I should have protected better. Instead, I let my mistake touch it, and I know that may have left your heart more careful than it used to be. I am sorry for that.
I want this apology to feel different from the moment that hurt you. Not heavy. Not demanding. Just sincere. I know healing cannot be rushed, and I know trust is something I will have to deserve again, little by little, with patience and care.
If you are still hurting, I understand. If you need time, I understand. But I hope these words land like something soft on a tired heart: honest regret, gentle love, and a real desire to become safer for you.
