I am sorry I was not good enough

I am sorry that I did not thaw out your cold heart

enough for you to let me down easy

I am sorry I took your time

I am sorry I wasted your money

I am sorry that you’re so very full of yourself

that you do not have the heart to love anyone else

I am sorry I took your sweater

the green one

your favorite

I am sorry I befriended your sister

and your mother

and your father

and your brother

I am sorry I kept you from seeing those other girls

I am sorry I lied to you

when I said I loved you

and wished you well

But most of all

I am sorry I met you.
