I'm Sorry

By Allison Claire •
I'm Sorry
For the pain inflicted upon you
For the betrayal you felt
For I wasn't there for you
as you started to fall
I'm sorry
For I was not strong
For I am as weak as the crippled
For I watched you suffer
as you fell down, down, down
I'm sorry
For being self-centered
For not paying attention
For watching from the sidelines
as you kept falling
I'm sorry
For I was hiding
For I didn't help you
For I was overtaken by pride
as I waited for you to catch yourself
I'm sorry
For being disappointed in you
For making you the guilty snake
For you taking the blame
as you fell to your breaking-point
I'm sorry
For I thought you had a parachute
For I did not watch closely
For I was too late
as you had already fallen
