I apologize to the girl I pushed down accidentally when we were playing tag. It wasn't my intention to make you fall. I apologize to the girl who asked me out in high school who I left without saying a word. It wasn't my intention to lead you on. I apologize to the guy who always hated me in middle school. I must have done something wrong for which I cannot remember. I apologize to my mother for being born. It's obvious after your first you never wanted a second. And if you did, you never acted that way. I apologize to my friend's parents for everytime I walked downstairs and caused the dog to bark. In the middle of the night when I had stomach pain and needed a warm rag or some pills from the bathroom. Whenever I went to get something out of the fridge to heat up or go outside to get to work. Whatever the reason I felt like a burden to the point where I would often go without food and just keep the silence. Sometimes I would leave the house and get back hours later so the tension wouldn't be there. I apologize to the kid in middle school who always had other kids saying nasty things about you behind your back. I never tried to help in anyway possible. I didn't know how or what to say. I apologize to all my relatives who have passed away who I couldn't even shed a tear for. I apologize to many of my friends who I haven't spoken to in years. I have a hard time speaking my mind. Thinking that everything I could say would just be a waste of time. I apologize to all the plants I forgot to water. I shouldn't have tried to take care of anything when I have a hard time taking care of myself. I apologize to the pine tree. That grew from an acorn I planted in a planter box that grew to be three times taller than me. And you inevitable had to be cut down because your roots broke the planter and made a crack in the garage door. That was my fault not yours.
