I went through my day as usual
Only no one was talking to me.
Not after what I'd done.
How could I have?
I didn't have a choice,
everything building up like that
But they thought I did.
And now they were filled with
anger and
sadness
I followed behind them perhaps starting to
regret what I'd done
But they would not. could not
Listen to my apologies.
It was then that I wished I could take it back
But you cannot take back the cut, the blood,
the life.
