Because “I’m sorry” is never enough
To fully express what I feel
I write with a hope that I’ll somehow relay
The truths why I feel that wording makes real

Just a tiny pin-prick of a startle or jest
Cuts a canyon so violent within
And the only reason I know to explain it
Is that thru you I see life ‘bout to begin

Because all my regrets at my random tears
Will unlikely be fully explained
I’m trying so hard to open the shell
Where I cower within, afraid and ashamed

The more I wish to be better for you
The more I keep falling short
The more I want to be real and true
The more I see patience’s final resort

Because I’m not perfect and neither are you
And patience grows thinner each day
I fear that I’m running from fear that perhaps
Very soon you will go on, alone, your way

The complex tornado of dark, looming doubt
Has ripped my foundations apart
And while I’m adrift and spinning aloft
I can see that I’m tearing your heart

So because my emotions run rampant at best
And I am enraged that I cause such pain
Once more I’ll offer my wrist to you, my Dear,
So you’ll cut out the danger from inside my vein.
