I’m sorry His idea of a free pass Forgiveness As if I owe him As if when he says The words I am to forgive Without a thought To the feelings He so carelessly Crushed To the part of my heart He just stepped on I’m sorry Is not an automatic Cure all For the wrongs Said Done To the heart of me And should the shoe Be on the other Foot God help me But I’m sorry Has never been enough For him Or his superior heart Or first come feelings That always seem to matter More than Mine….. ~SEA~ |

Susan, I can relate very well to this one. I tend to be the one offering apologies, often getting none in return, even though I wasn't the person at fault in the first place. And you know, sometimes "sorry" just doesn't cut it! A good write, my friend. (((hugs)))   Michael Stars will shine when I am gone |

 (big huggssssssss) Oh Susan, I couldn't agree with you more, it always pains me so much to see so many use the word sorry without any sensitivity or thought into it at all, without understanding the hurt another feels and talking it over with him or her! (kiss on cheek) This is a very powerful thought, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Susan, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Jen, Michael, and Noah,thank you just really angry right now, it's always the same, his "I'm sorry" is supposed to be this magic cure all while mine is never good enough...I'm just upset... |

Rant to your heart's content. Sorry is just a word. Actions always speak louder, and tell the truth more often. Hugs and peace. You have a right to demand "the real thing." |

Hey, SEA, when someone says to me "I'm sorry", I just say "Yes, you are" and walk away.  Rant on, SEA. Tell that man to stop doing things to feel sorry for. Doesn't he know how many of us are waiting...? |

Susan, See...I like it when you take a stand! There is a simple explanation. It is about ones focus. Those who mostly see themselves in the mirror seldom consider the perspective of others. Makes for moodiness and egg shells. You are the best! Hang in there.  I can't believe she rants...but I like it! Everybody thinks of changing humanity and nobody thinks of changing himself.

thank you Hoot!! Hey Doreen, yes, when it is felt and I know he meant it, then I always accept it....it's when it's said flippant, and coldly, with the expectation of acceptance, that is when I won't accept it. |

Oh wow Sue, I have lived every last word of this poem and know exactly where you’re coming from. This sounds exactly like my ex husband. I’m finally separated from him, but it cost me a lot. Once I get over my anger from all he’s taken from me, I’m going to have a good life again. Right now, my blood is boiling too much to even write about it. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
