I am sorry
For my imperfection
For my flaws
And mistakes
But I am also confused
For I was made this way
A slacker
An under-achiever
With big ideas
And a passion to drive them
Yet destined to be trampled
My voice is too big
But not big enough
And I am sorry
I don't use it enough
To talk to you
But when the conversation
Appears one-sided
And it lies on me to keep it going
It's difficult
And I become distracted
With beings who talk back
Forgive me
For I am a mere human
And you are so much bigger than I
