Apologies by Sarah Cate

"I'm sorry"

she says when the man to her left bumps into her.

"I'm sorry"

she says when someone steps in her way.

"I'm sorry, who are you?"

she asks the random man who is harassing her through her messenger app.

"I'm sorry I'm so fat."

"I'm sorry I'm so thin."

"I'm sorry my place is a mess."

"I'm sorry for standing out."

"I'm sorry for hiding."

"I'm sorry I exist."

"I'm sorry."

Hi

Magic words.."I'm sorry"... can have so many meanings and so much feelings for the person who hears them to the person that says them. One of those things we need to listen to how they said more then just hearing the words...

Great topic..;-)
