PAD 20 Unsaid


I’m Sorry

The words of wisdom tipped her tongue
She didn’t know what made her stall
She could have ended it right there
She didn’t say them after all

Insults flew fast, feelings intense
And soon it ended in a brawl
She could have spoken words of hope
She didn’t say them after all

From that time on she knew the score
Her silence ended in their fall
Though she rehearsed them in her head
She didn’t say them after all

She held the words of peace within
Her reticence made her feel small
Apologies can mend and heal
She didn’t say them after all
