A Waiting Grave

DAILY PROMPT

Apology

Write a new post in response to today’s one-word prompt.

Gerhard Richter Abstract Painting (849-2)Tired of being sorry

tired of feeling sorry

tired of always looking down.

Sorry is chaos.

Sorry is a set of sharp teeth

in the mouth of a vicious beast.

Sorry is where dreams go to die

where regrets are buried

in a dark forest choked by weeds.

Sorry is pain

Sorry is regret

Sorry is a waiting grave.
