I like this poem :)
I agree! A 'sorry' can't repair the damage that has been afflicted. But sometimes you just have to grin and bear it. I haven't even gotten a 'sorry' for something that has completely altered my life and who I am, but I must grin, bear it, and move on.
That line about "lurk in my moms skirt" kind of struck me as incestuous and misplaced, not as "i need to hide from the big meanie!" So, I'm not sure exactly how the audience is supposed to take it. Maybe a different word choice?
I loved it, nonetheless :) VERY NICE!
Just a tip: Try working on lining up your verb tenses.
i.e., "we start from a surprise encounter,
i never thought it will become deeper"

I think this a good start, but, poem-wise, it needs a bit of patching up. I would suggest reading it aloud. Poetry is meant to be read aloud and I do that even for my stories to find awkward and/or run-on sentences. Try it out.
Otherwise, nice idea going
Nice write! You expressed your emotions really strongly in this piece, and reading this took me back to moments in my life where I'd either been the person saying sorry, or the person who sorry was being said to. You had some great lines in your poem, particularly in the first stanza. The only thing that I would maybe suggest is to perhaps drop the rhyming, and try writing free verse, because in a way, I kind of felt like your rhyming took away from the fundamental effect of what you were trying to say. A few typos here and there, but other than that, this was a well written, honest, heartfelt, vulnerable write. :)

The many lines of this poem I like. You made your points with your words. Disappointment leave us hurt and we need to be wiser and walk into love with open eyes. Total poem was strong. I like the ending. I like when a woman call you honey. A excellent poem.
