Ficlets

I'm Sorry

I can say it a thousands times
For so many stupid little things
It is so highlighted that I can’t say it
Not for this anyway
Not for you

It has become so meaningless
That in the event of everything
I’m afraid to say
That I am scared for you
So I answer in minutes
Because that phrase
That phrase is a shortcut
A way to avoid the problem

Not this time
This time I’m adding to it
It is not just two words and the end
Not because I don’t know what to do
Or wish I wasn’t where you are
But because I actually have to say it
But I’ve never said this with more meaning than now
I’m sorry that I didn’t realize it earlier
