"I'm sorry I took your toy."
"It's okay."
"I'm sorry I ate the last cookie."
"It's okay."
"I'm sorry for pushing you on the playground."
"It's okay."
"I'm sorry for calling you a sl*t."
"It's okay."
"I'm sorry for lifting your skirt."
"It's okay."
"I'm sorry for groping you."
"It's okay."
"I'm sorry for hiting you."
"It's okay."
"I won't do it again."
"It's okay."
"You caused it anyway."
"It's okay."
"You're the one who should watch out."
"It's okay."
"I feel like I'm constantly apologizing for things you did."
"It's okay."
"I'm not sorry."
"It's okay."

"It's okay." This touched me deeply. I'm so glad that I took the time to read this poem since with two simple words, I could see a hidden depth.
