I AM SORRY

You called to me

And drew me near

You showed me the expanse

Of your never ending love

You knocked on the door

Of my heart

And I let you in

You showed me how to live

I was eager to please you

I cherished our time together

But then it stopped

I no longer answered your call

I did not heed your advice

I left you out in the cold

I was on my own

Independent

I did my own thing, and was happy

Only I was not

I was not with you

You gave your life for me

I turned my back on you

You showed me favor unending

I showed you nothing in return

You gave me your only son

I gave you grief instead

I am sorry I left you

I am sorry I forgot you

I am sorry
