A poem

I'm sorry I'm silent
I'm sorry, I am
I'm sorry to think that I was being a man

I'm sorry I'm thinking
I keep you awake
With problems on top of yours, yeah my mistake

I'm sorry I talk
I talk with no breaks
I just can't shake the thought that your heart needs a break

I'm sorry I'm not there
To say it's okay
I'm sorry that people just push you away

I'm sorry I fell for you
I'm sorry you met me
I'm sorry I fucked you
I'm sorry you didn't leave me
I'm sorry, I am
I'm sorry, you are
Feeling that we maybe won't make it that far

I'm sorry the sky's clear
But still it looks dark
I'm sorry I hurt and left you with a mark

I'm sorry for you
I didn't want to disappoint you
I'm sorry that I just don't think some things through

I'm sorry I'm not
Perfect like you
But maybe just maybe I think that I could

I'm sorry that I'm
Insecure and I
Know that you hate it when I shut my mind

I'm sorry I'm sorry
I can't say it enough
And the word's losing its meaning while I'm still feeling rough

I'm sorry I say it
And repeat it again
I just dislike it when things don't go according to plan

I'm sorry that I
Freeze when I fear
Of you coming to your senses and you'll just disappear

I'm sorry but I
Am scared to just lose
The one thing that could leave without giving clues

I'm sorry I'm lazy
I'm sorry I'm hasty
I'm sorry I'm crazy
I'm sorry I'm lately
Too sorry for words
Too sleepy for work
Too hard on your thoughts
And too deep when I lurk
Too pushy when I
Need you to talk
While I should just stop your tiredness and let it take a walk

I'm sorry I'm sorry
For not listening to
Any compliment and praise that is coming from you

I'm sorry I can't
Believe that you'll stay
I'm sorry I hardly listen when you say

"I'm sorry my love
It will be all right"
I know that it will but I can see you struggling to fight

I'm sorry I'm scared
Unsure how to yell
I'm sorry I don't know how else to help

I'm sorry I'm incapable
Of helping with your stuff
But I'm not sorry I love you and that keeps my head up
