Proposal

I held back your proposal
I know I wasn’t fair
I was selfish
Am sorry.

I still had her in mind
She still ruled my thoughts
My heart still had feelings for her
Even though she moved on.

I kept you waiting
I know how it probably feels
I didn’t know what else to do
Am very sorry.

I needed time to heal
My heart was not too quick to accept the reality
My friends were still pushing for a reunion
I still did not know what to do.

Am very sorry I held your proposal
It pains me that I’ve never waited this much for love
And so am happy to say yes to you
Because from this moment we stand here, I’ll forever have you.
