Apologetic Poems

Premium MemberApologetic Moments

 
They’re merely empty words unless their from the heart,
meaningless apologies meant to save one’s face.
From damage we’ve done we are seeking a restart, 
but previously uttered words we can’t erase.

Premium MemberUnapologetically Apologetic

All Scripture and Tradition teach that we should never fear.
Don’t wait to speak until you find a sympathetic ear.
But preach to every nation: Let’s be loud and let’s be bold!
Just like our Lord and Savior. Yes, and all the saints of old.

Let’s dare to be courageous! Daily pray for greater faith.
Cooperating with God’s gift of

APOLOGETIC

For all we've been through,  you deserve more. 
Forgive this fool! 
I wish I could take everything back
But be angry with me, I'll bear
I know I acted most dumb
Probably my brain froze and went dumb
My silly acts won't you forgive? 
My tears I shed, love, to you ill always give
My Jewell of life! ??
You

Unsmart Metre

I’ll apologise here at the start
For this verse won’t appeal to your heart.
So banal, it’s a shame
But I’ll shoulder the blame
’Cos it's not rude, nor funny, nor smart!

Just Like Always

Just like always

Smart people wouldn't trod on the paths she had trodden;
Wise people wouldn't be in the predicaments she always found herself in.

She offers no words of condolences;
Neither any words of repentance;
Not even a word of remorse.
Why would she feel apologetic to anyone;
When the gravest sins she committed to herself?
Why does she live so foolishly?
How

Metric Apologetic

Perhaps I ought to publish my position
(as if there's anyone disposed to care!):
I'm not convinced that open competition

is profitable.  Poets, self-aware,
and full of self-esteem (as many are!)
increasingly seem disinclined to share

the fruits of midnight labour.  From afar
(and I do not possess a crystal ball)
I think that I perceive a lowered bar:

requirements (this is

Premium MemberApologetic Heart

Apologetic heart
Cannot sleep
Or swallow

Feeling sad
Kicking memory of idiocy
Self-angry

Heavy heart
Too sad to cry
Mirror glares as I practice my lines

Will you answer your door?
Would I?
I over-guess myself, feeling dejected.

Sorry and sad.  Depressed.
I have to try.
Dressing quickly. Love propels me.

Premium MemberShe Was Apologetic For Being Alive

She was lovely, a beautiful kind soul, giving, loving, generous, but also apologetic for being alive.
Her light gray eyes danced and pranced, and her laugh was hearty when you got to know her.
Lots of people thought she should be invisible.
They wanted their garbage dumped, and their rooms vacuumed and cleaned silently.
Knowing this, she usually kept

Sympathetic Apologetic

Why should I be sympathetic apologetic
life eats at you if you let it
never forget it
forget where you came
sick of this mumble rap its hella lame
so what can you proclaim
displace
why should I listen if you have no taste
semidetached keep the lock on your mouth latched
one to run when you're outmatched
why should I bring my homie's
when all

Premium MemberBelated Apologetic Valentine

I don't say the many things I should;
A sometime poet who runs out of words.
I don't do the things I could;
I get distracted once the wine is poured.
I'm not sure the things I say and think
Are born of me or come out of my drinks
There's no telling if much in my mind be true,
But when

Apologetic

Got sand on my eyes 
I couldn’t see my mistake
I walked like a trouble
I’m unacceptably different

Back before the old times
Back when were young and wild
We used to play games
Memories are still alive

I wrote everything in mind
The pieces of memories
But don’t get me wrong
I never throw anything

The will to say sorry
I’m telling to the world
This sincerest

From An Apologetic Man

I want you to know,
That I love you more than I love rain, 
And more than I love to live, 
And I live for you more than I love to live for loving you. 
It's a paradox to be hugging you. 
Creating emotions 
to oceans 
Of tidal waves, 
To my final days 
I will always

Premium MemberAn Apologetic Prosy

There was a time, when I felt totally undesirable
unjustifiably [I now know] and you being in your infancy
felt so.. un-understood, writhing in a man’s body, seemingly a child
with the heart of a warrior, a man, with all a man’s needs.

There was a time, when time stood still, and time meant nothing,
and age was but an

My Un-Apologetic Apology

I HATE BEING WRONG,
BUT EVEN WHEN I'M WRONG,
I COULD'VE BEEN RIGHT!
ONLY IF THE SITUATION WOULD'VE HAD THE RIGHT WRONG PRESENTATION,
I WOULD'VE HAD ALL JUSTIFICATION FOR MY DRAMATIC EXPLANATION!
MY APOLOGIES FOR PULLING OUT THE DRAMATIC EFFECTS,
FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE ONLY CONTAINED BACKGROUND EFFECTS.
NEVER INTENDED OR THOUGHT ABOUT THE SIDE EFFECTS.
SO WHERE DO I BEGIN?
HOW DO
