"I Am Truly Sorry"

I am truly sorry, Mother

the way I have made you feel tonight.

I overreacted, it is so childish of me.

And I thought you have raised me better.

I would do anything for you,

to gain back that of your trust

and even your love.

Please forgive me.

Time and time again,

I mention that it will never happen again,

but it returns,

never giving much warning.

I always make that promise,

to make a change in my ways.

It is too hard for me

and I have no idea why.

And time and time again,

I mutter the same three words,

their meaning means nothing to you by now.

What else can I do except mutter them into four?

I am truly sorry.
