Apoligies

“I'm sorry. I have to work late again”
“I'm sorry I just can't do this anymore”
“I’m sorry I want to provide for us”
“I'm sorry I could never find the words to make into poetry for you”
“I'm sorry I forgot our anniversary.”
“I’m sorry you put money over this family”
“I’m sorry we can’t eat love”
“Me too”
“I'm sorry I forgot how to taste the chocolate you bought me with the last of your paycheck. That I ate without considering the luxury”
“I'm sorry I forgot how to run my fingers through your hair in the way that you like. That they always got tangled.”
“I’m sorry I forgot the miracle of the way you move around the kitchen on Sunday mornings. That I slept in.”
“I’m sorry I didn’t stay in bed with you.”
“I'm sorry I couldn't melt all my hurt into a mug so that you might hold the warmth of me in your hands.”
“I'm sorry I was always so cold.”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t read the love in the way you touched me”
“I’m sorry I only texted in single syllables”
“I'm sorry it ends like this”
“I'm sorry it lasted so long.”
