Im Sorry; Im Not Sorry

Just kinda came up with it

I'm sorry
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted
I'm sorry I wasted your time
I'm sorry I told you my "silly" dreams
I'm sorry I believed your lies
I'm sorry I trusted you with my secrets
I'm sorry I always stood behind you
I'm not sorry
I'm not sorry I'm myself
I'm not sorry I'm giving my time to someone else
I'm not sorry I'm chasing my dreams
I'm not sorry I tell the truth
I'm not sorry I found out your secrets
I'm not sorry I stood up for myself
I'm sorry, but I'm just not sorry.

Wow, I took one look at that title there(which is a very good title, I must say), and I just thought to myself, 'that is one sarcastic, wise-guy sounding title, which means this poem is probably very good", and I was right. I love the way you started out by beginning every line with "I'm sorry", but then eventually transitioned to "I'm not sorry", and then bang! Dropped the title like it was an anvil designed to drag the kraken itself down to the depths of Davy Jones's Cafeteria(because Locker is too clichéd). This was a very enjoyable, and kind of clever, read :)

I love this. I can totally relate to every bit of this poem. I love that you are both apologizing and standing up for yourself at the same time. It is truly a great poem. Your poem is so honest and just shows how strong you are and that shows what a great writer you are as well. Well done, it is a very powerful poem.

This is powerful. Sorry that you were fooled but not sorry that you learned from it. Great theme and poem.

I love the whole meaning to it, its deep, and strong!
I love the last line, brilliant way to end it.
The whole poem was great :)

Good stuff! I really could related to this poem. You took a stand in this poem, letting the other know that you are sorry he didn't accept you for who you were, and that you were not sorry for being who you are. I like your writing.

Amen, sistah. I can identify. It's nice to just get our violent emotions which yet are rational in plain language. Sometimes that is the only way, since it is the way we hear language spoken most often. I don't know why it is that way, but 'sorry' as a concept is a big thing, or humungo as they say...

Nice! I like the 2nd stanza best, it also Describes life, and reminds me of one of selena gomez's songs, can't remember which though.

I feel like there is so much honesty in this poem, I absolutely adore that. I think that it's relateable as well. x
