I'M Sorry Poem by Florence Badejo

I'm stupid and I'm sorry
I know you're not mad
But I'm making you worry
And I'm making you sad
I was out of it when it happened
I don't actually remember doing it
But it's the only way it could have gotten there
I remember after though
It was still in my hand
So my mind just connected the dots
From the one over here to the one over there
I'm sorry for not talking
I just keep on forgetting that there are people that actually care
I'm not as bad as I was when I did it
I can think better now, if only just a hair
My senses are clearing from the shrowd of darkness
That I had spun around myself
I promise to try to stop what I'm doing
So that you won't have to go to extremes
It happened last week but the mark is still there
I forget that I heal rather slowly
It wasn't that bad though I'm sorry for hiding
I seem to be running low on common sense
I know that you care and I should be trying
No matter how pointless to me things seem
I lost my grip for more than a second
So now I'll try to make this a better dream
