I've lost. A gambler, spent, holding my breath as losers often do. So much owing but my soul wont fetch much on the black market. And too much time has been borrowed knowing "sorry" has dropped in value. I'll repay someday the way liars often do with broken promises and years old faded schemes. The begger I'll always be cheating at the game forever holding my hand out in need from you. But in my shame my poverty, my plight im sure we could strike a deal Please come and reclaim. (this is my attempt at an apology that may never be heard) Someday I'll fly, Someday I'll soar, Someday I'll be So damn much more Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for. ~John Mayer |

This is outstanding, and oh so true. Sorry has lost it's value. I believe that, we throw it around. But I believe it is meant here. |

The begger I'll always be cheating at the game forever holding my hand out in need from you. wonderful..there are those of us who always are in hopes that "forgiven" never becomes an obsolete word. hugs M |

Sometimes it's what is written in your heart and you've clearly made an amends through this outstanding write. I sincerely enjoyed this. Thank you. |

one of the best apologies I've ever heard. Because it was so honest and, as was said, heartfelt. Beautifully written. |
