That Damned Gun: I'M Sorry

I'm sorry I took that damned gun I would pretend I thought it was empty but I knew it wasn't and I could have stripped it with my eyes shut. I'm sorry I made a mess of your wall but if I had been thinking clearly I would have stood in a garbage bag to save them the trouble of finding me way later. I'm sorry I forgot to leave a note and that you will not hear any of this for the hurt I have caused you all that you will never be able to forget or move forward from. I'm sorry there are still laws in place that allow us to acquire these things for I am pretty sure right now it was just a fleeting moment and sleep would have sufficed. I'm sorry.
