I’m Sorry

Resa71

I’m Sorry.
I’m Sorry I couldn’t climb inside the flesh of your affliction.
Or take your hand and, lead us both away from our addiction.

I’m sorry that I made you walk away from your famialar world,
To chase after this crazy, confused old girl.

I’m sorry I fell victim once again to his manipulative lies.
I’m sorry that, on that fateful
Night,
I didn’t recognize the hurt, and distance in your eyes.

If I could turn back time, be
Given one more chance.
I’de place my hands on your
Shoulders,
While we danced ,our very first dance.

    Beautiful but sad my dear, Resa!
    If only we could turn back time...
    Unfortunately we can’t! So we have to try our best with what we have left and rise above our past mistakes! Wishing you all the best!

      Thank you for reading it.
      I know it’s not healthy to dwell on the past, I’m trying to move past the sadness and guilt.
      It’s better now than it was a year ago.
      I bielve it will continue to get easier as time passes.
      But, it will never completely heal.
