Description: I’m sorry that I had to revert back to the depressing stuff, but it seems to be the only thing I have the ability to write about these days. This particular poem is the outcome of me being the shyest living person on this planet. My inability to put the extra step forward in the only relationship I have ever had cost me many arguments and then eventually it cost me my girlfriend. This is my Apology to her.
My Apology -------------------------------------------
I couldn’t take the shouting no more
That’s why you ran out the door
I should’ve stopped you
I should’ve told you
But I couldn’t find the words to say
And now I regret the day you went away
I’m sorry I couldn’t help you
There simply wasn’t anything I could do
I was lazy
And I know that’s a shitty excuse
Will you forgive me
For what I’ve done to you
I’ve got nothing left to give
My heart is empty
How am I supposed to live
Baby I’m sorry
For giving up on you
the are five words in any language that are the hardest to say..."I love you" and "I'm sorry"
I for one tend to choke on the latter. It's unfortunate that we let pride get in our way and allow it to destory something that could have been a God send.
Structure wise on this post it was a bit choppy and your last stanza only had five lines the others had six. but hey if your like me then the closet posts that come straight from your heart probably aren't as smooth as your others. When I get emotionaly involved in my posts they tend to have a weak structure.
anyhoo I look forward to reading more of your work.
