By Way of My Apology
As I leave the valley of my youth
With the sharpened daggers
Of my tongue and pride
I plainly see the melody of ways
I have learned to kill and wound
If I would have come to you
With my hands open but not out
Or wrap you in my arms
And known that that was more than enough
If I could have heard your heart sing
When they played your favorite song
Or heard you plea
The times I said goodbye
If I would have known how lost I left you
When I left to find myself
Or dared to enjoy the peace
That my rest could give to you
If I could have felt how much it hurt you
To see my body broken
Then I should have wept
At the drop of those single tears from you
And If I would have known the losses
From all the battles I refused to lose
Then I would have lived
What has taken years to see
And come to different terms
By way of my apology…
