I want to apologize to you, <br />for you placed your trust in me. <br /> Then I lost my mind and betrayed you, <br /> for reasons unforeseen and mean. <br /> <br />That is not the way I operate, <br />don’t know what came over me, <br /> better to ask questions first, <br /> then blow and make a scene. <br /> <br />For I am so embarrassed… <br />that I thought of you that way. <br /> When in doubt or unsure, <br /> It’s better to just wait it out and say, <br /> <br />“I do not understand, <br /> I am actually so confused <br /> Can you help the darkness lighten? <br /> For I don’t want to play a fool! ” <br /> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <br />So the next time that I’m angry, <br />and I don’t know what to do, <br /> I will stop and think of this time… <br /> when I didn’t think things through! <br /> <br />Written April 11th 2005<br /><br />Shelley L Baxter<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-apology-5/
