The soft meaning
of sympathy
and forgiveness
holds the metal
bar of difficulty
in our tongue

Oh, that's beautiful. Saying sorry can be the most difficult thing sometimes. Liked the usage of words here.

And "sorry" is such a small word yet it means so much to the one receiving it... yes, at times it can be so difficult and the word can lie so heavy on the tongue. Lovely brevity here but with such power and thought.
