my apologies

my apologies

A Poem by Emily B

I know what you're thinking

 

and I'm sorry.

I can't explain.

I don't have words enough for it . . .

I want to be honest.

Bare all to you,

it's just there's so much weight

bearing on me today.

Too many voices

whispering in my ear -

wanting too many things.

 

I may avoid your gaze now

 

but later

 

the skies will clear again

This is a beautiful and honest piece. Often, I find myself not wanting to be around people that I normally love to be with and it's nothing they've done, it's just my cloudy head not finding the words. You have such a way of putting such deep and unexplainable emotions into words and I so admire you for that.

S**t...
I felt guilty...hardened by something I didnt do but had to explain myself for.
I even thought of all the heinous s**t I did and immediately wanted to apologize for it.

This was the seconds before a stroke..

well done

Interesting piece. It can be so many things to so many people. For me it's the words that I wish I had heard once from my ex wife.

Beautiful and so true, there are those times when we haven't even come to grips ourselves and sharing is not an option....the time will come, always and eventually, then I'll let you in. Great thoughts and writing.
