How do I make amends

to the ones I've let down?

To the ones I've hurt

and burdened?

To the ones I broke my trust,

yet they still trust me?

Tell me,

how to make amends

because this guilt

is burdening me now;

burdening me with shame

and guilt,

and bringing

negative thoughts

of death and hurt.


How do I say sorry?

It seems that's all

I can say

when something happens,

yet I mean it

and at the same time

it doesn't feel enough.

Yet I still say it.

I'm so sorry

that this isn't enough,

but I'm sorry.

How do I make amends?
