saying sorry
Didn’t use to
hesitate for
a single second,
Jumping to
conclusions,
And headfirst
into all the
evidence.
I never doubted
a word you said,
Even if the words
I said weren’t so
clear.
I never
learned to put
trust
within
myself,
Lived my
life, hiding
in fear of
self.
It’s not an
easy thing to
admit,
And
I know all
the things
I’ve done.
Saying sorry won’t
make it all come undone.
Sometimes apologizing isn't enough. I'm still learning to let go, and realize that not everything can be mended. Sometimes you have to leave it broken, so you can pick up your own pieces.
