I Was Wrong

At five, I stole your teddy bear
Chopping the head off and cutting all its hair.
As teens, I posted a picture
Which made you become rather unpopular.
When grown, I crashed your brand new car
An accident which I made you pay all for.
Now old, I wish I could've been
There for you all those times like you were for me.
