Sorry

Sorry stopped meaning something the last ten times you said it 

“I’m Sorry”

You said, yet the meaning wasn’t there 

For sorry is just a word to fill a blank space in time 

“I’m sorry, I really am”

Yet somehow I know 

After I get better again you’ll go back to your ways 

 

Your words pierce me; a knife to my heart 

Leaving me empty, hollow 

A fragment of a past self 

Yearning to start again

    I'm 14. 
    And I just saw Bruce Springsteen
    Live for the first time. 

    I've loved him and his music since I was 6. 
    I've listened to him religiously since I was 7.

    018751 this was the lunch code I was given 
    My first day of third grade 
    My teacher wrote on my hand 
    With a green marker that smelled like berries 

    018751 this was the passcode for my first email
