A Confession
I have a confession, it must be said.
I’m very weak, touched in the head.
I make the same mistakes over and over
Put me out to pasture; leave me in the clover.
I don’t mean to shock; don’t want to upset.
I just need to say it and show my regret.
I’m really very sorry, didn’t think of it that way.
Would take it all back; what else can I say.
I’m just going to say it; lay it all on the line.
Hope it’s understood and all will be fine.
On second thought, something I usually dismiss.
I think that I’ll forget it; add my regret to my remiss.
