Sorry...


I turn my face away,

gripping my cheek.

 

I'm sorry...

I'm sorry.

 

I didn't mean to make you mad.

I never do,

I don't know how to make you happy.

 

I agree with you no mater what,

I have your dinner ready for when you come home.

Laundry is done and folded.

 

But still..

I'm sorry.

I don't wish to anger you.

 

I'm sorry...

I'm sorry.

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” - Mad Hatter
