Hey....

Hey....

A Poem by David Burke
"

an apology

"

Hey....




I bet you don't remember me, or perhaps maybe you do;


but I'd like to apologize for the way I've treated you.


I'm sorry for all the things I said, so malevolent and cruel.


Just words of hate, and condescension spoken by a fool.


I'm sorry for the tears you shed, and the pain I put you through.


I bet you thought I didn't care, but I was hurting too.



Every day I live my life feeling guilty, and upset.


 I'm sorry that I was that person, you wished you'd never met.


But all those evil things I did, weren't only just to you.


I'm also sorry for all the pain I've caused my family too.


So now I try to right the wrongs, before anything can worsen.


Because after all when I say you, I address more than one person.




So to everyone I've ever hurt, here's a message to you from me.


I hope you all have a happy life, wherever you may be.

I felt this one good write, You're most welcome
One of the hardest demons that we fight are often ourselves. You capture that in a very eloquent way. So often we are our worst enemy. Nice piece.
