Apologetic

I'm done being sorry.

I'm sorry that I all too often complicate simplistic things.

I'm sorry that my subtext is verbose, and lacks much empathy.

I'm sorry that you can't see through the heart I'm wearing on my sleeve.

And I'm sorry that I tend to drench your words with guilt when I bleed.

 

I'm sorry for the remnants of my perfume on your clothes.

I'm sorry that no matter how much I try to hide, my sorrow shows.

I'm sorry that I'm indecisive and I never know.

And mostly I'm just sorry that I never can just let it go.

 

I'm sorry for the million times you must have kissed my face.

I'm sorry that where we once were is occupied by empty space.

I'm sorry that no matter how I try you just cant be replaced.

And I'm sorry that it has to be your validation that I chase.

 

I'm sorry for the teardrops that keep rolling down my chin.

I'm sorry for us and everything we might have been.

I'm sorry that through all the mess, its still not the end.

And i'm sorry that with you I cant help falling in.

 

I'm sorry that you felt you could throw me away.

I'm sorry that I'm at your feet begging you to stay.

I'm sorry this is not the girl I was meant to be,

I'm so sorry that you never were in love with me.

 

I'm sorry that its getting better every day,

I'm sorry because it's getting harder in the same way.

I'm sorry that I needed you oh so desperately.

And I'm so sorry that I let you just devour me.

 

I'm sorry that I used to love the way you said my name.

I'm sorry that I know from here on I wont be the same.

I'm sorry that the doubt I had about you turned out true.

But most of all I'm sorry that I'm sorry....That I'm so damn

Apologetic for you!

An emotional rollercoaster.

We try so hard in relationships to do everything just right and how we think it should be done that we too often lose ourselves. The pain when it is over is mixed with hatred, lust, shock and even love. We want things to still work out. We want them to change their mind. We just want to see us as the reason for their smile. It is a rollercoaster because even when you feel okay there is something that triggers those real emotions to come out. Some people don't get over the ride before they go on the next and when that dip comes and your stomach falls there is no one around to understand. It is a loss of breathe when you first go over the edge and begin to fall. Even tho you see the track and you know the loops, dips and twists, it still feels the same. I aplaud you.

Amazing poem.
I really felt you pain throughout
the poem.
That you felt that you had to say
sorry to this person who probably
didnt even deserve it.
Thanks for sharing

Best wishes

I am sorry that it ended. I thought it might be difficult to read, but as it went on it became a joy. ...somewhat of a story within a poem.
