Sorry To Bother You

Sorry To Bother You

A Poem by Ben Taylor

I am writing you to
apologize, to acknowledge
the pain I caused you.
A stupid boy
trying frantically to avoid
the difficult thoughts,
the desperate decisions. 
I communicated through tantrums,
by breaking things,
by hurting you.

It's a shame this letter
could be meant for any number
of people I have wronged.

hello, you know after a while, the girl wants to be beat and no one understands why,
me neither,
I don't understand violence in a homesetting,
or why abuse,
it is hard to even think about it,
but I understand you , based on your poem,
between the lines, are the truth,

Yes, and this could be an apology from any number of people - self included. Often wondered about this and have offered it up to the heavens in hope of it landing on those who I have offended. Thanks for the post -carl
