I'm Sorry
by Regina S.
copyright 01-13-2004


Age Rating: 16 to 127

 
I’m sorry that I’m not the same
but things do change with time.
I saw the horrors the world holds,
it’s in the hands of slime.

I’m sorry that I haven’t laughed
but it’s hard to crack a smile.
A cold, dark shadow holds my heart,
it’s been there for a while.

I’m sorry that I haven’t called
but all my warmth’s been drained.
What would I say when you picked up?
My innocence is stained.

Blood runs not through my veins now,
it’s only stone and ice.
I have FORGOTTEN how to smile
I cannot "just be nice".

Ignorant bliss is broken,
my eyes are open wide.
I will forever stand my ground,
I refuse to hide.

I’m sorry that I’ve caused you pain
but this is something I must do.
I’ll fight this madness 'till the end,
to make the world better… for you.

I just had to read this one again...I mean, it has a lot of truth and meaning. Also, I wanted to give it points it deserved.

Doing something for the better good of someone else isn't always appreciated. Good write, Regina.

this was touching and I think many have felt this way before.

This is very, very, touching. I don't know why or how, but I know how you feel in a way.
Very nice

Many people shroud their eyes from the truth, even after seeing it. They somehow manage to lift a veil of their own making, believing the deception they hear and refusing to accept the way the world is. Then there are people like you, who, despite the fear, the harsh blows it deals, face the truth head on and yell "I will not stand for this!" It does change you, it does hurt you, and people will stop liking you because of it, but others will, and they will admire you as well.

This poem is something that is more tragic than a writing of death, because the death of innocence is something that can many times be considered worse than death itself. Reading this reminds me of when I had the curtains pulled from my view, and I saw the world with eyes that didn't believe anymore in the sugar coated lies we're spoon fed from childhood. The pain,the wanting to return. But it gets better, and soon, all you want is the truth. It's an addiction.

I'll stop bugging you now. Great write, Reggie.

Forever,
Debra
