Sorry

I didn’t know I felt this way
How stupid can you get
And I have hurt my friends today
I never can forget
It wasn’t meant to be this way
I just wrote poetry
I thought I’d miss the other play
And I’d be trouble free
And suddenly it was that way
I fell in love with two
I never meant to cause dismay
To one as dear as you
I thought that friendship was my way
Until I knew you well
And ever since I’ve made you pay
I’ve made your life a hell
You knew of course about my way
That I was not alone
The many things we found to say
When we spoke on the phone
With her I did not know the way
My mind had found to go
And now all life’s in disarray
And I regret it so
So sorry has to be my way
It never is enough
There is no way to make OK
A life you’ve made so tough
If I decide to go away
Then I’ll hurt other friends
So I must hope I never stray
And make more of these ends
The final thing I send your way
Is that my love is true
Though now I never can portray
The truth of that to you.
