For all the mistakes I’ve ever, I’m sorry For every equation, mathematical explanation For every wrongdoing and in shoeing and for every left turn I ever made, I’m sorry. For forgiveness, I am sorry For apologies sake, I am sorry I was born in sickness and from the moment I walked I felt Atlas’ burden on my shoulders I am selfish, I am unruly, I am forgotten and regretted and in debt to the people who reached out to me I am moving forward, starting backwards, put my arms around my head for I am shattered I have a heart with an empty home and clichéd voice with whose words I yell, I roam a lonely earth and put arms around my head, my mind in fact, for I am shattered. A race of humankind I cannot love nor relate to and I feel like I relate to you but lately I feel as if I’m drifting backward And not to say I’d like to move away from you but what else can I do when life is moving me backward And backward, and backward and like a future so pre determined I feel as if no choice is now my own and no choice is ever free will No cosmic force would remember me and I am sorry I do not want to be something you forget and you’ve always told me I am something you remember. In a shade of cobalt blue or a burning red or a golden yellow, I want to be a colour you cannot describe A taste you yearn for, a smell whose memory remains But all the same, I want to disappear. I am sorry in terms long over due for all the things I do and have not done yet because you don’t deserve their scorn and yet I cannot leave them behind for parts of me for which you fell for remain inside me, and always will. I am sorry for who I am and choices made and I will always be here whenever you decide the pieces I can’t leave behind are pieces that you cannot forget. I’m sorry, my makeups both genetic and aesthetic are not pieces I enjoy or wish would stay a little longer And for this I am sorry, and all in good time I will make up for all the sorries given, driven, laid to rest here in these words. I am sorry for things you don’t deserve.
