Your mistake is obvious
Yet you cannot see it
When you do,
You cannot find
The words to
Express yourself
Accurately.
You open your mouth
But all that escapes
Is a drizzle
Of trite words,
“I’m sorry.”
Can’t ease the pain
You have caused.
You shouldn’t bother
There’s no point
Don’t open
Your incompetent mouth
To let the stream
Of remorseful, but
Meaningless words
Trickle out.
