Forgive Me
Harry Casseus
My apologies worn
My lies became beyond overwhelming
I promised you to be better
But it wasn’t such a promising effort
I watched you study people
I never pictured you to be collective
I solemnly swore to protect you
All in all it was me I was protecting
We fought;
It was never physical
But the wounds were visible
Forgive me;
I didn’t mean to leave you in a condition so critical
I’m selfish;
I even talked to myself when I used to visit you
Something I’ve ruminated; but never guessed that would
get rid of you.
How pitiful;
I even let my mother down
And blamed my insecurities on not having my brothers
‘round
I’ve crippled our world
By hanging on to what’s repugnant
Now To be honest, I see them as puppets now.
