Apologize

With every creeping crawling hour-
My heart turns more bitter and sour-
I still don't know what went wrong-
But back in time for us I long-

To change my words, to have you back-
And with my fists give myself a whack-

I am not worthy to hold your hand-
Knowledge of this makes me not stand-
I ran away, a coward i was-
Pretended this would gain applause-

I thought you wouldn't feel the pain-
For all my sympathies it is in vain-
My dear I miss you most dearly-
Now i see my faults all so clearly-

All I want is your heart to mend-
And someday, maybe, to call me friend-
