Nov 2011
I took out my key, opened the door
Watched the living room just for a second
Ran upstairs, left my suitcase on the floor
But this is all my fault, I reckon.

I'm sorry for the mean things I have said
And the bad things I have done,
I'm sorry I can't keep you out of my head,
I'm sorry if I miss you a billion.

I slowly stepped into my room,
With my eyes closed with fear
When I suddenly smelt your perfume,
I opened them and made everything appear.

I'm sorry for always being in a bad mood,
I'm sorry I can't be happy all the time
I'm sorry for the times I am so cruel
I'm sorry for thinking you're all mine.

I didn't look at my small bed
With a sad look on my face,
I just looked at the window instead,
I looked at all this empty space.

I'm sorry I can't live without you,
I'm sorry if this is too late
I'm so sorry but there is nothing I can do,
I just have to accept my fate.

I thought I could be strong enough
To understand, to start a new life here
To stop crying, to face the truth,
But I broke down in tears.

I'm sorry for always thinking too much,
I'm sorry for being such a baby
I'm sorry I really like your touch
I'm sorry for the times I act crazy.

I asked myself what I was going to do,
How on Earth I was going to survive
You're my everything and I'm nothing without you,
This is one of the things you don't realise.

I'm sorry for being a waste of your time,
Because you deserve much better than me
I'm sorry I can't get you out of my mind,
But you're just so amazing, and I'm just so me.

I sadly sat down on my bed,
My mind full of moments we had together
I suddenly remembered things I have said,
And they made my happy memories bitter.

I'm sorry for when I hurt your feelings,
Because I know I have but I didn't mean to
I'm sorry for saying stupid things,
That's just me and there's nothing I can do.

I looked up at the ceiling,
And watched the bulb slowly dying
I compared it to my lifeΒ : close to the end
I can't stay so far away from my best friend.

I'm sorry for not being there when you need
Someone to talk to, or just hold you tight
I'm sorry for the times I was being stupid,
I'm sorry for keeping you awake at night.

I then stood up and just stayed there,
Imagining I was holding you in my arms,
I just watched the empty air
Tears in my eyes, shining like stars.

I'm sorry for spending the nights crying
When I should have been happy to be with you
I'm sorry I can be so annoying
I'm sorry I can feel something so true.

I slowly sat down at my desk,
Took a paper and a pen out of my drawer
Why did I do thatΒ ? It was grotesque
I started writing a poem about us together.

I'm sorry I'm too emotional,
I'm simply sorry for being me
But most of all,
I'm sorry for being sorry.
OLD.
