Just say sorry

Ashes of past relationships,
Past friendships, past loves burned down
By the fire of deceit.

By time I have become
Sick
And tired
Fed up
With insecure boys
And oblivious girls,

With friends who don’t know their own strength,
With you not making up your mind,
With me believing every darn lie you tell,
With every fucking thing.

I’ve seen sunrises burn light on what could have been a wonderful lie,
And alcohol blur the truth like rain on a windowsill late at night when you’re wipers aren’t working.

I’ve seen car crashes and death more times than I can count but somehow what you did seems ten times more atrocious.

and despite all this
all I want is for you to say ‘I’m sorry’ , and you’d be forgiven.
