To a friend, to say I'm sorry

Contributed by Levi on Wednesday, 31st March 2004 @ 10:17:12 AM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



I can’t image why this you would do
And yet I know the reason
I was mean, and I was cruel
But in all my years I never wanted to hurt you

You were, are, my friend
My childhood friend who shared my dreams
You were a sister when I needed you most
Simply a friend when my wins I would boast

I know not who or where you are
For the distance between us is just too far
I know now I know nothing of you
When you knew me to my very core

Forgive me for my sins against you
I did not mean it to go this far
The taunting and teasing and anguish I caused you
Were not my wish at all

Forced to do, yet freely done
I tortured you before
I made you leave the warmth of the sun
You ran for darkness, and lived in light no more

In darkness you found comfort
If but for a while
A tortured soul hidden away in the dark
Huddled up on your bed like a frightened child

I do not know what it is to be tortured as you were
But I do know what torture is
To look at you and know that to you
I cannot say a word

All for the sake of popularity
All for the sake of lies
I tortured you and you left me
In a way, an eye for an eye

Forgive me of my sins
Though I know exactly what I do
Forgive me of my sins
My sins, against you

You are my friend

What a story! I liked the poem! It's really good! Admitting you're guilty and saying sorry is a very difficult thing but this poem did that and in a great way too!

This poem really broke my heart. You write well but the story was incredibly sad. I found it touching that you wrote this. Kie
