Poem 6: A Silver "Sorry"

 

A Silver “Sorry”

I walked away and sang

Silverless Songs

Wasting time that wasn't mine




I don't even have the words,

Don't even know how...

All I can say is “Sorry”

“Hope we're ok...”




It's not about me,

Yet You made it that way...




I care so much,

Don't know what's wrong...

No need to figure it out...

I'm just sorry about it all.




I'll try

I'll get it right

True Life is always calling...




So much Love...

All for free.




Yet I walk away

and sing

Silverless Songs...

Wasting time that's not mine,

And Knowing

I'll try to take it back again,

with another silver sorry...

that I can't afford

Just cause

Right now I want much more




Undeserving,

Should be dead.

I can't sing silver songs,

When I know I'm silverless:

Poor in my soul...




\Grace\




Then your gifts humble me...

My gratitude must be given free

Thank You for letting me

Feel silverless when I sing




I know I need to make it right

Can't go through this one more night




Silver Songs...

The best offering

I long to bring

I'm Sorry




\I Love you too.\
