Poetry: Apologies

by Megan Dickey

Created on: July 22, 2007

Why do you take another drink?
If you hate the way it tastes
You know you'll wake tomorrow afternoon
Alone feeling like a fool

And why do you call?
If you don't want this anymore
Does it just make you feel better
To know I'll still answer despite who you are

When are you going to learn?
You're running in circles
In every directions
But never going forward

Is there something you want to say?
But you just can't find the words
Well maybe there is something I don't want to hear
Like the sound of your voice

Are you afraid of what you might have done?
Of the efforts and time you've wasted
Well these are the effects of your fun
It probably wasn't worth it

Why do you say the things you do?
If you're sorry before you finish
Well if you mean it then say it, cuz you know I can take it
But lets not play these games

And now you act like you might want back in
Well guess what I might not be waiting by the phone
No, I probably won't be waiting at all.
