To All The Women I Once Loved Poem by Oluwatobiloba Kolawole

To all the women I once loved

I am sorry I never showed you how much I cared
I was really scared
of being the only one in love
I want A happily ever after
but all I see around is broken hearts

To all the women I loved before
who made sure I never felt alone
and ensured I smiled on my darkest days
you taught me how to love myself
and to love someone else
I am sorry I wasted your time

To all the women I once loved
who showed me so much respect and care
even when I wasn't sincere
I am sorry I pushed you away
I thought I could do this alone

To the women I once loved
Thank you,
and I am sorry
