David William Breidenthal Poet Free verse

I'M Sorry

Are you there? I can hear your silence
As it rips apart all of me…all of me…
Are you there? I need some deliverance
As I fall apart by the seams frankly

Am I lost? Why must I go through so much stress?
I am making sheer progress by deleting hopelessness
I am sorry that I hurt you so…hurt you so…
I am sorry that I have to let go…let you go…

I have become dumb…
I drink sorrow’s rum…
I am reduced to this bread crumb…
I will be strong like titanium 
I will be strong and ripened like a sweet, beautiful plum

Are you there? I can hear your footsteps
As it rings in my ears and rings a bell…you caress me again
Your lips quiver against my own 
As if you loved me long ago – does it still show?

Are you there? I can hear your silence
As it rips apart all of me…all of me…
Are you there? I need some deliverance
As I fall apart by the seams frankly

Benevolence and perseverance –
They are all in my throbbing head of dread
You are truly in my remembrance
I need some happiness and cheer instead

I am left so uncertain for infinity years
I am left broken with many fallen tears
Am I lost? Why must I go through your agony and worries?
I am making sheer progress as I walk to and fro in the breeze
