Sorry.

I didn't mean to do wrong,
but my presence seems to bother you...
Sorry.
What you said offended me,
but my opinion seems to annoy you...
Sorry.
I was happy,
but my laugh seems to be too loud for you...
Sorry.
I'm trying to be your friend,
but apparently my friendship irritates you...
Sorry.
I just want to be myself,
but I guess I'm not good enough...
Sorry.
~~~
Too many times, have I said one word.
One word that, no matter how much it is meant, nobody believes.
One word that is always said by the person, the person who has been hurt.
Sorry.
An apology that is heard, but not really.
An apology that sometimes is said with tears, other times with a roll of the eyes.
An apology that sometimes is acknowledged, other times ignored.
An apology.
Sorry.
