Apology
How do I tell you I'm sorry - With a gesture, a look, a touch? How is it I never realized I hurt you so very much?
I do not ask forgiveness, A comfort I'll never deserve. I merely want to let you know, But I cannot find the nerve.
To finally confront you, face-to-face, To look you in the eye, To face your wrath, your apathy - Too terrified to try.
You called me selfish, I turned away, I festered and I fled; Cutting and wounding and lashing out, Just to see if you bled.
Betraying and deceiving you, I surely had no right To snatch away such a precious gem; A dark thief in the night.
Four years and forever passed To bring us to this day, When I present these simple words I never thought to say.
The time has come, it's long past due, To put aside my fear; Would this confession torture you, Or have you longed to hear?
To hear those two forbidden words, To vanquish all the pain, To understand my dearest wish: To know you once again.
The years aged me remarkably, Though they have not made me wise; I do know I erred irrevocably - For that I apologize. | |
