From the heart
I知 sorry for not hearing
When life was stressful
When your loved ones were hurting
Or when one had hurt you.
I知 sorry for worrying more
About how what you might
or might not choose to do
Could affect me
Than the pain you suffered
I知 sorry for being impatient.
I知 sorry for being needy.
I知 sorry for twisting stories
Into knives
To slice your heart
I知 sorry for making so many things
About me.
I知 sorry for not being there
When you looked for a friend
And being there too loudly
When I craved a listening ear
I知 sorry I lack the skill
You may have acquired through the years
Of pasting the past in a photo book
To set on the shelf.
I知 sorry for wanting
To roll back the tape
Sit wrapped up (together) on the couch
For a home movie night
With you.
I知 sorry I still haven稚 cut your life
Out of Someday痴 snapshots.
I知 sorry for wanting a redo
Of all those times in the past
I wasn稚 a very good friend.
I know you are different
But so am I.
And I am so very very sorry
For all those ways
I hurt you.
I知 trying to grow
Into a better me
I just wish we could meet
Who we are today
Because I believe
We壇 only be better
Friends.
