Sorry

by Michael J Falotico




                                              I never meant to hurt you.
                                              
                                              A day I can't take back.
                                              My intentions never seen.

                                              So many missed chances sailed out to sea.
                                              Only to let our love drift apart.
                                              Rules I was too young to understand.
                                              Rain that fell washed me away.
                                              Your smile stays in a place that only I see.

Very nice write! I will be checking out your stuff on a more regular basis now. I have marked you down. I have not been on here much due to nose 2 the grind. (just finished a book) You have excellent meter and flow. 7rate, may strike word "that" if publishing. But excellent. I mean it! ~JSLambert
