Sorry

I want to start with an apology,
But it's already to late.
Pain is prevalant in every
Breath, Every move.
That one word,
ONE tiny little helpless word,
That is supposed to change everything.

I should take more consideration
When considering my next step.
Domino.
Thoughts topple one another over.
Mistakes tip me over the edge.
Think, 'I won't be able to redeem myself',
Before I inevitably make the mistake
I didn't know I'd make.
I guess I can't claim this a mistake.

I couldn't start with a word with little meaning.
I couldn't bring myself to say that hollow
Echo of a desperate plea for forgiveness.
I couldn't start before the beginning of this
Stop myself before it began.
Endings are supposed to mean something,
But I find myself left with
Sorry.
