I'm Sorry

I'm Sorry

I'm sorry I hurt you.
I'm sorry I disappointed you.
I'm sorry I didn't live up to your expectations.
I have no excuse except I'm human.
Failure is my middle name,
My head is full of shame.

I'm sorry for my actions.
I'm sorry for my lack of respect,
For my failure to anticipate how you might feel.
Too late I see my error.
I broke your trust,
Suffer now I must.

If I could erase my mistakes
Then I know I surely would,
But what's done is done and cannot be undone.
I'm weighed down by the hurt I caused..
You can't forget it
And how I regret it.

Will you forgive me?
Is it remotely possible?
Can we be friends again? Time will tell.
In the meantime I wait in the wings,
Wallowing in my sorrow,
Waiting for tomorrow.
