Forgiveness

Here I long
For apologies from
The people
Who offended me

Here I ask
For explanations from
The people
Who treated me poorly

But deep inside
I know
The one
That needs to be sorry

Hence here I am
Asking for
Forgiveness,
I am sorry

cries

Scream into the
starless, polluted sky--
she won't forgive you.

Like banshees,
we shred our voices
with our horrid cries,
hoping to be heard.

So rip apart the skylights above and
shred the asphalt below
so that our mother might hear us.

Hear what?
our terrible
apology.

sometimes all there's left to do is yell into the void and hope that she yells back.

For You

Forgive me, for I have since forgotten.
I have traded in my inkblood for parchment
I have starched the graffiti from my walls,
Ignored calls from long-dead poets,
Because I never quite quoted them the way that I was meant to.
I have bent to the divine quill, my fill of pretty words
Has overflown into untouched urns and silent monasteries.
Forgive me, for I have banished my sword-drawn histories
I have untangled the vanquished threads of my revelry.
This verse is an apology.
This verse is my best memory.

A Confession, An Apology

I am sorry for leaving,
your gentle touch was
hurting me, and your
gaze ate at my heart

Porcelain Plates

Smooth and polished,
porcelain plates.
Won’t you allow me,
some mistakes?
For if they break,
crack and tremble,
it is only,
unintentional.
These tiny shards,
might hurt you just a tiny bit,
but it is me who lost my pieces,
tiny voids nothing could fit.

I’ll apologize for imperfections,
I’ll apologize for my lackings,
but will you allow me,
the luxury to be human?

Lover's Apology

Dear A, you are the love of my life.
Darling, my shining light in the darkness.
O hear me, leave me not alone in this.
I plea, beg upon my very knees now.
Life had been unkind to me until you came in.
Please, I am only human, forgive me.
Together we laugh, we smile - we love.
Mi amor, what can I do to fix this?
Tell me; I shall do what you wish of me.
We can overcome this, can we not, Love?
I love you too much to lose you, my love.

I made this last Tuesday night, when I didn't know how things were. It's in iambic pentameter, so it's not exactly poetry, but I wanted to share it anyway.

Apologies

It's a game
where all the players
try to be the most sorry,
making them victim
of their guilt

like a haiku, but not. I'm very prone to saying sorry a lot, sometimes I don't mean it, I just react out of fear.

The playful spirit

She looks on into the clock, wondering when the bell would signal her release from boredom. She finds herself playing with the hoodie of a classmate, hoping he'd focus on her to have someone keep her mind from the mundane atmosphere of the classroom. She always loved messing with his hoodie during class because his reactions were always funny. She tosses the piece of clothing from one hand to the other when She comes to realize the patient nature of the classmate and thanks him for not leaving her in a world of loneliness and apologizes for having to put up with her.

I have a friend in class that sits behind me and she always liked to mess with my hoodie whenever the class would bore her, one day she apologized about having to put up with her. I never really minded when she played with it.

A Sincere Apology

My words came out wrong last night
"I'm sorry" doesn't quite convey
How I wish could take it back
Find some other thing to say

I know I do not deserve your love
Compassion of any kind
I just wanted to tell you
Without your voice I'm losing my mind

I am fueled by only four hours of sleep
Chaos in my head
Replaying the unrelenting scene
Laid awake for ages in my bed

Wondering what you thought about
I watched evening turn to light
What could I possibly do
To make up with you and make it right?

A sincere apology is not enough
Fix everything that I do wrong
Owe you so much more than that
For being and keeping me strong

An oldie but goodie. Why can't I write this well anymore?
