Apologize
And apologize
And apologize.

Apologize not because you are sorry
Apologize so that you are always right.
so you can get sympathy
so you don’t need to take accountability
The apology is your accountability

You are surrounded by apologizers.
It is a lesson they never meant to teach you.
It is in your blood.

Yours is a lie.
To set the score straight,
They can’t say you didn’t feel bad.
You say you didn't mean to hurt them
You hide behind your words
It is always the right thing to say

When they don’t accept your apology
Face yourself.
You are the monster
The ugly truth you bury behind your kind demeanor.

Shut those who see the truth out.
Those who stay, eventually leave
You wish they would stay,
You know you are no good for them.
