SEASHELLS [short poems]

TOO LATE

No, don't come apologizing now
Don't ask me what should be done
Don't please me, please...
For I have long forgotten the reason I was hurt
I've lost the memory of the stupid words you've said.

So now, please don't apologize and put me on the bad side
Cuz I've had enough of playing this losing game
and hating myself in the end.

—Laxmi Bhargavi Golla
