I'm sorry.
I murmured to my father,
When he expressed his everlasting disappointment.
*
I'm sorry.
I whispered to my friends,
When I pushed them away and left them behind.
*
I'm sorry.
I said to my sister.
When she sobbed at my cruel words spoken out of spite.
*
I'm sorry.
I cried out to my mother,
When I wasn't able to protect her for I was only a child.
*
I'm sorry.
I shouted to the world,
When I realized what I had done to it by simply being born.
*
I'm sorry.
I silently tell myself.
When the days get harder and I know I'm not enough.
*
I'm sorry.
