Deb Radke Poet Rhyme

The Apology

Say you’re sorry...

It echos still.

Say you’re sorry

Or I’ll send you away.

Say you’re sorry

Or I’ll lock you in your room.

Say you’re sorry

For making me feel this way.

Say you’re sorry...

Her words with portent loomed.

And I was sorry

Each night and day.

And I said the words

Every which way,

Until I stopped

And realized it was me

Who deserved the apology.
