A True Sorry
Sorry is not enough
 When you’ve shown a friend your battle scars
 The ones you just got
 While trying
 To overcome the voices
 In your mind
 
 Sorry is not enough
 When you know you’ve hurt someone
 A person close to you
 Who you never wanted
 To feel the way they do
 About what you’ve said or done
 
 Sorry is not enough
 When you are speechless
 A rare occasion on
 Which you know
 You shouldn’t have
 Done what you did
 
 Sorry is never needed
 In some cases
 
 Like when you are sympathized for
 By your true friends
 People who understand you
 And will never let you down
 
 Like when
 You are told you are loved
 Despite your battle scars
 Despite your problematic needs
 
 Sorry is never needed
 When you are offered protection
 When you are offered compassion
 When you are offered mental stability
 
 Sorry is unheard of
 As you are given a second chance
 As you are presented a new home
 As you are swept into a new family
