The lives I touched with a wrong hand;
The souls I hurt by deed, word or thought;
The dreams, hopes and futures I shuttered;
I'm sorry, if your discomfort was my fault.

If I was a wrong knight in that shiny armor;
If I was the villain that ruined you fairy tale;
If I never loved you back or loved you enough;
I'm sorry, if our wrecked relation-ship couldn't sail.

If I owed you something but did not deliver;
If you stuck your neck out cuz you believed in me;
If you took a blow for my sake, if you were a friend;
I'm sorry, if I was a dark character in your bright story.

If I could ever have been a better brother;
A better son or a better anybody to you;
A better crush, admirer, icon, poet or person;
I'm sorry, if your dreams of me didn't come true.

If I accidentally left you out of this poem;
If I'll ever hurt you or cause you pain again;
If I could have been more honest with you;
I'm sorry, if my errors are an unending chain.

Keep Smiling
