fade, then return.

i'm sorry that we're in a war,sorry that it all fell apart,
sorry that we have become enemies
at the dinner table.
i'm sorry that words have become wars,
sorry that your voice has become harsh,
but i wonder if it was inevitable,
or if it was simply- self-defense.
i'm sorry that i let you go,
sorry that i have to beg,
sorry that we have become two strangers
in an alien world.
i am sorry,
i am sorry,
i am sorry
for saying the first goodbye,
because sometimes the first goodbyes
are the last.
i am sorry,
please don't let me go,
i love you.
(three words, and they mean the same thing.)
