5 Apologies

1/20/13

  

this apology is a worn out snare

far too used up, and in need of repair

its repetition alone makes me stare

down at the floor, and over to the chair   

I won't meet your eyes, I'll avoid their glare

wait, you said it again, how could you dare

this apology is a bitter veil

thin as parchment, but heavy like chain mail

its familiar effects will leave me frail

battered and bruised no time to exhale

constant offender, you belong in jail

what, you said it again, how could you fail

this apology is a bent cork screw

rusty as hell, on my heart it will chew

its uselessness obvious, very see thru

damage worse, then any help it could do

I love you baby, but this is not new

you said it again, why can't you stay true

this apology is a blackened vise

menacing and cruel, a torture device

its crushing affect is not very nice

I'm between its jaws and paying the price

your using it proves your colder than ice

you said it again, you didn't think twice

this apology, like snow in July

is hard to believe, it's a total lie

its strong effect makes it hard to deny

that I'm in bad shape that I want to die

was nothing to you, didn't even cry

you said it again, but this is goodbye
