I do.

YOu may ask me . . .

It's been two weeks since I made her cry.
Do I still feel bad?
DO I still feel responsible?
Do I think I could have prevented those tears?
Do I still dream of those darkened eyes?
DO I still wake up . . .
Saying "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."?

Yeah, I do.

It's very wonderful and important to be able to say you're sorry.

I'm sorry

Thank you. I only wish it made a difference.

The Dulling Edge of Sorry

Tell me what to do when I'm sorry doesn't fix it
tell me what to do when a warm touch can't chase the pain away
evil was only a myth, a storybook villian
now it's so real, and I can't find my cross

Figures in the mist, threatening
but always millions of miles away.
Closing in fast from every direction
the distance less and less

Tell me what to do when the demons stop running from me
tell me what to say to scare them away
I was a god, they the guilty Soddomites
Salt or no they fear no more my wrath.

Voices in the hall, echoing through the years
Legends , murmers, lies of past lives
louder and louder they grow
listening less but hearing more

Tell me what to do . . .
when I cause someone pain
Tell me what to do . . .
I fear I will again.

Can you ever forgive me?
Me, long ago, but recently remembered.
