This Is Why
"I'm sorry" leaves my lips
More than "you're welcome"
Or "thank you"
It sits upon my shoulders
Weighing me down
A grief to drag on
It interrupts my thoughts
Pierces my points
Makes a mockery of me.
Yet I can't let it go
It keeps slipping out
"I'm sorry"
Every thought I have
Is a regret
A sin
Every action I take
Is a mistake
A joke
How can I ever be me
When all I can say is
"I'm sorry"
"For what"
They say
"For existing"
I'm sorry.
