I'm sorry,
For the promises that lay broken at my feet.
I'm sorry,
for my inability to be your shield in life's ongoing firefight.
I'm sorry,
That I followed my heart instead of my mind.
I'm sorry,
That I wasn't in control.
I'm sorry,
That when you say, "heartless" I know it's true.
I'm sorry,
For not being able to feel anything but the numbness in my fingertips.
I'm sorry,
That I prepared for goodbye before even saying hello.
I'm sorry,
That I'm about to go against my better judgement.
I'm sorry,
That everything you taught me is about to be ignored.
I'm sorry,
That I failed you.
But I promise,
I won't fail again.
