an open letter (apology in t minor)

dear xxxxxxxxxxx

i am sorry that you feel victimized. i am sorry that you feel abandoned. i am sorry you feel restrained. i am sorry that you surround yourself with death. i am sorry that your death follows you. i am sorry you run to fast. i am sorry your ears bleed at the hint of truth. i am sorry you smoked today. i am sorry you smoked yesterday. i am sorry i am sober. i am sorry you are not. i am sorry that you can't stay. i am sorry you know you left.

you left a long time ago.




there are things that i would like to say, but when i try to speak your voice runs over me, wheels under wheels through a golden spike and a steel hammer. i can't speak.




i am sorry i walked away. i am sorry i didn't support you.

and as i scream and i scream and i scream and i scream and i scream
