Apologies
meryem Feb 2
Apologies,
Just words,
Words anyone could say.
Did you really mean it?
You say you did,
but why did you do it again?

Please don't say sorry,
While pretending to feel regret.
Thinking after just one word,
Everything will be fine,
That three simple words,
Will change how I see you now.

But I can't.

How are words supposed to erase
The pain, tears, and scars,
already made?
I feel like most of the time, apologies are just made to make us feel better about ourselves, rather than actually expressing regret.

What is home?
meryem Jan 22
Is home the place where my bedroom is?
Well, what if it turns into dust?
Is it a place I currently miss?
Or is it something we carry within us?

Is it maybe some sort of feeling?
Some sort of feeling I never felt?
Or is it a building with a ceiling,
a place where joy and sorrow melt?

It could be just an address,
Or the face of someone I love.
I think it's time to confess,
Home is a place I seek to know.
