Forgive Yourself

He

never told her sorry.
There was no apology, no remorse for the gut wrenching pain he caused.
She didn't need there to be.
Her strength to walk away was her own apology to herself.
Her apology for allowing herself to settle for anything less than she deserved.
Sometimes the only apology you need is the one you forgot to give.
The one to you.
Forgive yourself often.
Forgive the scenarios you put yourself through, for you are only human.
