Sorry

7).  SORRY ••• Sorry mum??

So I'm going to spend a moment 

A moment maybe to late 

A moment to say sorry 

To a mother I didn't fully aprichiate 


So I'm going  to say SORRY

for every time I drove you mad 

I'm really going to say sorry 

For the times I acted so bad 

So dear dear mother

this is signed and sealed inside the pouch of a dove 

Set to fly high to you

 Beyond the clouds above  

To me this is less of a poem 

Less of a letter of eternal love 

To me this is a sorry from a weeping heart 

As I wipe these tears with my glove 

So mum I'm sorry 

Sorry For all the sorry's 

Sorry for the worries 
 
Sorry For all the not sorry's 

Where the sorry's were due 

Sorry For all the times 

I ever rudely, bad mouthed you

Sorry For all the times 

you always new best 

Even tho at the time 

It was hard to digest 

Sorry For all the times

 i said I couldn't care a less

Sorry For all the times 

you cried when we never spoke 

Sorry For all the puddles of tears with my name on

eye liner tears on the pillow you soaked

Sorry I wasnt this clever now 

Sorry I was such a young joke 

The fact is I could go on all night about all my wrongs as a youth

I Can't say sorry enough now your gone 

And that's the real truth

But I do have one more sorry 

The one the brings a tear to the eye

And that's sorry it took 25 years to say I love u 

But I'm glad That moment made you cry 

I could tell it meant so much to you 

I promise I'd say it every day  

17 days I told my mum I love u

17 days of  smile smiling with joy

17 days of taking me back to that feeling of being a boy 

So I'll send one last sorry mother

From a dove to heavens gate

And that sorry is sorry for the fact

 all my sorry's are sadly to late
