An apology
I apologise for the differences between us
For the controversy that caused our constant quarrels
I really do want to celebrate our differences- believe me, I do
But it is difficult if those same differences push me away you
I'm sorry that I do not know how to separate my mouth from my mind
So I apologise in advance if my words make you feel undermined
We grow older by the second
Every breath wasted by another insignificant fight
I do not know why we can't accept
Our differences, though try as we might
I apologise for me not wanting to fit in all the time
Or for trying to defy your definitions of me
Or for time and time again changing the version of me that you get to see
I apologize if I was never completely grateful of your attention
I regret that to this day
But I hope you can forgive me
That's all I have to say
