I'll apologize a thousand times, even if it doesn't change a thing
I'm sorry for the sadness and the tears I've caused - I must come clean
Lonely now is how I feel; alone again, I miss that fling

Do not wait for me with bated breath,
because my heart dances to and fro.
Its chambers are hollowed and empty
it longs for
As a bird perched on the edge of its nest
eyes searching the unknown world outside
strengthening its wings, yearning to fly
