Laura Breidenthal Poet Rhyme

Apology Accepted

Fill me with lies 
No goodbyes
Kill me with sorrow
No tomorrow
Break me with words
This is absurd
Drown me with hate
Is it too late?
To apologize...to apologize
Look me in the eyes...
And apologize...
You will never understand me
And you’re never going to find me
You took a part of me 
That didn't belong to you 
Well, live with what you got
I have nothing more to lose
Leave me here to rot
I have nothing more to lose
And if i do...
The only thing I'm losing is you...
So fill me with lies
Say your goodbyes
Shoot me with sorrow
There's always tomorrow
Your words can't break me
Your hate can't drown me
Look me in the eyes
You absurd man
It's never too late
To apologize...

Michelle Mac Donald May 11, 2012 at 7:09 PM Oh, it's strange how some guys won't apologize...it's like admitting they'd done something wrong! One of my sons has difficulty with the 'I'm sorry'.:) Love 'im anyway!! This is a very deep and resounding write, Laura. Keep well! Best wishes, Mikki

Black Eyed Susan April 24, 2012 at 10:09 AM I like how you reversed everything in the 2nd half of your poem, mirroring the 1st half. I hope he apologizes!

The Situation April 7, 2012 at 2:11 PM powerful!!!! but you make it seem like it is too late. i lovedthe power of your words it brought drama.

Elizabeth Wesley April 6, 2012 at 9:01 PM Funny thing Laura, we seem to be on the same wave length with men and emotions here. So full of emotion; a great write with a lot of hurt in it.

Andrea Dietrich April 6, 2012 at 8:04 PM wow, a very feeling poem this is. Emotional but done in a good way, a powerful way.

Michael Smith April 6, 2012 at 8:08 AM The hurt of heart; crossroad betwixt both mind and soul resonates with words to all.

Chuck Novotny April 1, 2012 at 11:20 PM When I read "...Well, live with what you got I have nothing more to lose..." and then the final words, I get shivers. Having been that stubborn, prideful man and losing a loving, forgiving woman has fueled much of what I write. This is a testament to the strength of a womans heart. Awesome writing - Chuck
