The power of "Sorry"

Saying sorry might lessen the pain I caused on my side but it doesn`t on the other party, it`s only an excuse to put everything behind but that doesn`t mean that pain and those words are forgotten... the more I clench my fists and fight my partner is the more I leave them bruised and hurt. No matter how small the cuts I make are, they end up leaving a huge open wound, one that will not heal as quickly as I would expect it to and no matter how it becomes deep and dark from my cuts, sorry wouldn`t make it disappear, sorry wouldn`t take that pain away instead it adds onto the horror inside.

I believe I`ve been making cuts out of all the hurtful things I`ve said to you before, not knowing the consequences of pointing the blade at you, not knowing I keep making a wound too great for you to handle. I wish I wouldn`t do that anymore and I don`t know how but I keep destroying the thing that`s dear to me and that is your heart. I hope I take care of those small cuts before they escalate into something even bigger for me to handle...
