hurt

In a life full of blunders

It seems I’ve made one more

I smile and laugh at the reactions of others

They talk as if I’ve never made a mistake before



Now this ritual

Of apologies and repent

Is no more than habitual

As I resort once again to lament



It seems I’ve ran out of things to say

“I’m sorry”, ”Never again” and ”I’ll be good as of today”



Each time a different reason for my mistake,

“I was scared”, “I was angry” or “It was the hate”

But each and every time

I never really knew

What force makes me do?

Things that hurt me…

More than they do you



I plead you’ll accept my apology

Not because you forgive me

But because you know the person responsible for the mistake was not me

Not who you see

But an evil within

An evil who climbs out my pores to sin

An evil who will pull out all the stops to ensure I don’t win…



Don’t win this game

Don’t win this game called ‘Life’



I apologise on his behalf
