Sorry


Sorry Sorry is what they said Sorry because their lips can only say those two syllables They know they’re the reason why The constant torturing they do to his innocent soul Sorry because they know he’s never coming back Sorry they said when the tears left me Sorry is all they said Sorry is what he said when he pulled that trigger Sorry is what they said when they found out But, where were they when he was hurting? They couldn’t see how he was feeling inside Sorry is what they said to me Sorry is what he said to God as the gun let go of that bullet Sorry is what they all said Sorry is the 5 letter word that he left me Sorry Sorry Sorry Is what I read over and over again But, sorry isn’t good enough because He’s GONE.
