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

  • Darkness

    Standing in the streets, 
    The darkness of the city lights 
    Washes over you. 

    The joy of the summer fades, 
    The sorrow of the fall is a current feeling. 

  • NYC

    The streets were bright and alive, much larger than in previous months. The air, was filled with so much heat you could practically see it.
