Apologize
I came to the realization
That an apology will never come
Your pride will not allow you to be wrong
I had your back
I picked you up when you fell
Dusted you off and pushed you in the right direction of greatness
Tied your bootstraps when you stumbled
Brought you to the top of your game
And what did I get??
Ridicule
Disgust
My will broken, faith diminished
Dreams deferred
Love denied and held for ransom
Mentally beaten, emotionally devastated
I’ve done so much for you
During the years together and apart
It took an act of the Almighty and several issues
To realize that it was all a lie
To admit that it was all wrong
And walk away from you
I had to realize
That you were a disease
That I needed to be cured from
To get rid of you would be my salvation
For all of the things wrong with our unholy union
I know you will never apologize to me
After all, you are always right
It’s not in you to admit
Too late
The bridges have been burned
Olive branches used as kindling
Just walk away and never look back
Real men apologize, but we know that you aren’t one of them.
