Wrote this
last night in a remorseful mood:
Sorry’s not the hard part,
It’s waiting for the ride,
While your head is breaking your heart,
And your lips and hands are tied
Worse than feeling lonely,
Because it’s well deserved,
You’ve wounded your one and only,
Now eat your just desserts.
Just a little something I knocked
up around two minutes ago called “Waiting to Apologize”. It’s about a silly
situation which has been playing guiltily on my mind for the past hour or so,
like a tiny little fairy on my shoulder, tapping incessantly on the remorseful
section of my brain with a self-righteous attitude. Why must we as humans, make
snap judgements? Why must we, as an intelligent, insightful and thoughtful
species, feel that uncontrollable urge to blurt a vomit of empty frustrations
at the first sign of a detour on the route to our personal satisfaction? You
know what? I have no fucking clue, and that is the most honest and well
researched answer I can possibly concoct after nearly nineteen years of
experiencing “the World”.
That poem sounds beautiful, though setting aside its background. Ouch, what were the circumstances?
ReplyDeleteTo put it simply, I made a snap judgement which ended up being wrong. The other half had left, so I was "Waiting to Apologize" to him in the morning. It was only silly, but at 2:00am the little things have a habit of getting at you...
