APOLOGIES


Apologies for sins I committed

For sins I’ve sinned, Or have I?

 

Against my sins I’ve sinned

Apologies for am not even sure I’ve sinned

 

Apologies to life for treating you with so little care

Even though I know I’m void of a spare

 

From the earth I seek forgiveness

Apologies for rashly trampling upon your patience

 

Apologies to the sky for being so high

Never to be looked down upon except by the most high

 

With the falling rain am guilt ridden

Apologies for running to take cover every time you come visiting

 

To the burning sun I’m conscience stricken

For despite your eke you still have to bear with my nagging

 

Oh dear faith! Hold no grudge against me

Apologies for embracing you only when it suits me

 

My dear lord, before you I bow

Forgive me, for only remembering you when I’m down

 

O happiness! You can call me an ingrate outright

Apologies for treating you like you were my birthright

 

Sadness even to you I’m sorry

 Apologies for not being able to cause the world any more than worry

 

For so many mistakes I was never made to pay

Apologies for not seeing how much you’ve cleared my way

 

The still and gentle night often I fear

Apologies for with my nyctophobia you still had to bear

 

Whether cold or hot, rainy or sunny

Apologies for terming each day as gruffy

 

My love, weep not for not all hope are lost

Apologies for not being there when you needed me the most

 

On the slate in which I write

Forgive me for tainting your white

 

With my pen every reason to be outraged

Apologies for spilling your blood just to fill my page
