my apologies

I know what you're thinking

 

and I'm sorry.

I can't explain.

I don't have words enough for it . . .

I want to be honest.

Bare all to you,

it's just there's so much weight

bearing on me today.

Too many voices

whispering in my ear -

wanting too many things.

 

I may avoid your gaze now

 

but later

 

the skies will clear again

This is a beautiful and honest piece. Often, I find myself not wanting to be around people that I normally love to be with and it's nothing they've done, it's just my cloudy head not finding the words. You have such a way of putting such deep and unexplainable emotions into words and I so admire you for that.

I liked this one, it was short yet it filled my head with many explanations to what this might mean.

[Phibby Venable]

i would love to hear this read in your voice. I think it is beautiful.

[Sorry Infamous]

Saying sorry is a process... and sometimes a scary one to come clean and admit transgressions. I thought this was simple and wonderful and bare.

[Alicia™]

I love it.

[run vs remember]

The resolution (again), makes the poem take on a whole new light. Hope like that is much needed, always.

Sometimes we just need time to ourselves to take care of things neglected, but we shouldn't have to apologize for it, those closest to us who may need our undivided attention should understand this, but you are Sweet Emily and so that is why you felt an apology was needed.

This piece seemed to speak of one who is just overwhelmed a bit .....feeling out of sorts and a need to be with themselves. It is a passing phase, one that will run its course in due time. Yet as with any mood, it has the ability to make others feel a sting, perhaps a guilt, that does not belong. One that is not intended in the least. How nice you are to apologize for it.

[Gandré]
