I sincerely apologize.

I saw you as a girl
a daughter I never had.
And missed the beautiful woman
wanting and waiting to be held.

I could and would never hurt you
I wanted to shield and protect you
I thought it was the best thing I could do
I was only trying to look after you.

I pushed you away, to keep you at bay
I deeply regret that today..
I did not listen to my heart
and what my heart had to say.

I tried to use my head instead.
Using logic, using common sense.
I tried to reason from past experience
not asking or considering your stance.

I was falling fast,
feeling so confused.
The closer I got to the fire
The faster I would burn.

I had no where to turn.

But I realized I over reacted.
I was genuinely concerned
I called to ask “Are you O.K”?
However, it was done and
it was too late to be retracted.

I'd grovel at your feet
and I accept defeat
I am so, so, sorry
please say “You're forgiven”
the next time that we meet.
