I'm sorry?A Poem by Nicole PilarDoes life hold a rhyme or reason? Is there really any cause or justification to the way we hurt the ones who keep coming back? And if the truth is that there really is no base to I'm sorry, Are any of us really sorry at all?
Scars across the sweater sleeves
Forever sealed in stitch Ball going through the space of time Forever set in pitch And though the light has flickered And the shadows have grown dim Cement planks still attached Still chained my every sin Whispers in the night Creeping up the hallows of my stairs Pushing away all memories Losing worries, losing cares All that really matters Is what I left undone What was before considered means Little when the course is run Who cares about the days of past Or of the tears uncried Who really thinks of old photographs That are only meshed with lies But still this is my apology To all whove I caused pain I might have added to the cause With this stroll down memory lane The street where all have walked But very few have said a word Outsiders try to break through walls But none were ever heard So as the spinning spinsters With their webs do fill the skies For Sale signs on my face emerge Along with more expensive buys Somehow the sun does darken And the clouds male it lighter still What once was up is down again Comes through the sleeping pill And now the song does end As had the life before Boots trailing down the hallow stairs Fingertips clinging to the door © 2008 Nicole PilarReviews
