I'm sorry that you're reading this,
I'm sorry that you care.
I'm sorry that in about five minutes,
these words will disappear.
I'm sorry that the grass is green;
that it's desperate to reach the sky.
I'm sorry that it makes you mad
when all I'm trying to do is try.
I'm sorry that to be loved,
you have to make everyone else feel sorry.
I'm sorry that I gained your trust.
I'm sorry that I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that you're reading this,
I'm sorry that I'm scared.
I'm sorry that I told the truth,
why should I have even dared?
I'm sorry that the world is round;
that it revolves around my arrogance.
I'm sorry that I never win,
and that it hurts to hear your silence.
I'm sorry that I lack the motivation,
to rise against the grain.
I'm sorry that I'm not good enough.
I'm sorry that I'm so plain.

I'm sorry that you're reading this,
I'm sorry I'm unprepared.
I'm sorry that I miss the days,
when no one ever stared.
I'm sorry that I am so shy,
so sheltered and misconstrued.
I'm sorry that you've grown to hate me,
I don't mean to be so rude.
I'm sorry that gravity
couldn't hold me down to Earth.
I'm sorry that my heart's still beating.
I've been sorry ever since birth.
