I said don’t worry about it
But I didn't realize I would be carrying the weight of the worry.
Moral of the story,
The worry always gets passed onto someone else.
Like tag
Until you find someone else to blame
Or wait until they make mistake,
You’re it.
And some people go great lengths to remove the shame.
Because as time goes on
The weight starts wearing on us.
Only so much pressure we can all take
I know we are all fallible, prone to mistakes
But I am a lightweight
When it comes to the amount of mistakes I can carry.
Something as small as a stolen penny,
My heart immediately begins to feel heavy.
Relief does come to rescue if I can say, Sorry.
A solution so simple, and only one word.
But when the moment comes to admit my mistake,
It seems I have swallowed my tongue
And bravery all at once.
