Apology Accepted

Trying to say I am sorry takes every fibre in my being to new levels. I cannot fathom out the uncontrollable hurt and sense of loss that burns within me... Sorry - a shallow grave of vocabulary, a sham of emotion but how can I prove that all I say is honest and true, that all I feel is what I do... Love, caring, doldrums of hopelessness? What acidic retort will I get in return? Probably a shoulder of ice, a frozen relic of the past - ignorance and foolish pride... Whatever you do, I don't mind because at least I would have been a man... and said I am sorry! Copyright Deon J.H. Burger 2014
