Sorry

I say I’m sorry,

but I don't know

just how far

an apology will go.

I’m sorry for reaching too deep

into a soul that looks like mine.

For laughing it off

when all I needed to do was cry.

For telling you the truth

a little too late,

and letting our silence

go to waste.

Because there's a last time

in every first time

we could never get back.

Because timing is everything

when time means nothing,

and an apology doesn't have a long way to go.
