I'm Sorry

The sun is setting

and the sky begins

its fade to black.

The day is over,

what's done is

done.  There is no

taking back.

 

The things I saw

the things I felt

today have really

opened my eyes.

I don't know why

I'm hurt this way,

it shouldn't be

such a surprise.

 

For a moment there

was a spark and

it took my breath

away.  The spark

burnt out, I caught

my breath, I'm sorry 

is all I could say.

 

I am who I am and

that's all I will ever

be.  An over weight

bag of imperfections,

afraid of life and all

I know to say is, I'm

sorry...

I had a day like this not too long ago. I believe I hurt one of the people closest to me. I think I will dedicate this to that person. Thank you for saying everything that I couldn't. This is a great piece !
