Did I Say I Was Sorry?

Contributed by Aquaelius on Sunday, 21st November 2004 @ 07:17:24 PM in AEST
Topic: ApologyPoetry



So this is the new me,
Cold and little bitter,
Maybe a little better than the old me,
not weak but strong, opinionated, Honest...
Maybe a little too Honest,
but open to the last, unflinching,
Convicted... Concise...

This was the old me,
Sweet and optomistic,
Far worse than the new me,
meek, quiet, a little uncaring about me.
Romantic, thoughtful... entry way rug.
Not too honest, but very quiet, non-combative,
push-over, foot stool... Lay-Z Boy.

I can see it in your eyes, the way they look at me...
the way you want the old me.
And you're sweet and kind, and always thinking about me.
You say my name with such affection,
You caress me with so much attention.
And you crave the old me, you pleade for it...
Your heart screams for it,
And your lips have been far too long from the taste of it.

I refuse to be the push-over any longer, I am strong,
I'm tired of always taking the other road,
I want to make my own way, sick of following.
And yet in the holes of my being,
the parts taking out by those before you,
Shed tears for you,
You need to hear the words I cannot say,
You need to feel the tenderness that I shun.
You need that complacency, that I no longer want.

Did I say I was sorry?
No, I'm not sorry... but I do apologize,
that deep down inside I could be that way again,
I could be romantic again, I could give those little things again.
I'm not sorry... but I do apologize,
that I could be soft for you to nurture,
Be needing of you...
I'm not sorry, but I do apologize.
Too many wrongs have been made to me,
Too many advantages taken.
I'm not sorry, but I do apologize.
I apologize that I could be... but I don't want to.

I love that part, that is how i feel a lot of the time. More like an oven and a washingmachine though... This was very great. I can totally relate to what you said. Good one, thank you for sharing!

I'm totally going through this right now. You really summed things up well here. I'm so glad I'm not the only person aware of the difference between the words 'sorry' and 'apologize.' Great work
