Sorry

by Kyra Marie, cancer - Not entered


Everything I did was wrong,
And nothing I did was right.
Sorry didn't mean anything anymore,
Because sorry had been said before.

I loved him more than anything,
More than life itself,
Yet it never appeared that way.
It was that which drove him away.

With every apology cam a promise, 
A promise I'd end up breaking,
Not knowing that it would be own heart I would shatter,
But at the time it made no matter.

I pushed and pushed until I could push no harder,
For I had broken our bond, 
A bond of love forever.
A forever that turned to never.

I never meant for him to go away.
I never meant for us to be apart.
I meant for us to be happy, him and I,
And instead I left myself alone to cry.

Every sorry was insincere
And every promise broken, 
But when I really meant it, 
Sorry just wasn't good enough.



Reason for writing:

    
After my boyfriend and I had broken up, I was heart-broken, 
and poetry helped me feel better about it.  I still feel 
this way, but poetry has given me a better way to express it.
