Sorry

by andy smith (akas) - Not entered

Here I kneel
I know I shouldn't
I'm very very sorry
Please pardon me
Accept my apologies
I am very much afraid
I must beg your forgiveness
for this abominable 
guilt that I feel

You smacked my hand
When I was a kid
Though I didn't know
What it was I did
But it must have been bad
Because I recalled
As just a little lad
You put me out in the cold

I saw you scream
And spit at me once
And your loving fists tried
To push food in my face
And your mouth wished I'd died
at birth.
I understand
I think I see

Now I am getting older
And your grave looks colder
But I won't forget
I can't forget
You explained to me
Time and time again I am
Such a bad bad boy
And I have learned 
So very very well
And one awesome bloody day
I will ascend those steps to hell
And you will be
so proud of me.

Reason for writing:

    
In a supermarket I saw a kid being walloped by a woman and he was saying ' I love you mummy, don't, I love you ..'
