I'm sorry
For the words I said
For what they meant
For the hope they brought
For the reality that they weren't
I'm sorry
For every gentle touch
For every warm hug
For every soft kiss
For all the love I showed that wasn't
I'm sorry
For the plans we made
For the time we spent
For the excitement we felt
For the life we saw that won't
I'm sorry
For the pain I've brought
For the sorrow I've given
For the the sadness I've grown
For everything you thought could be that can't
But I hope we can make it
I hope it'll change
When they know we don't fake it
And our love we'll arrange
I'm sorry

great
i like this a lot, after a bad breakup i really began to appreciate breakup poetry. i really like the "i'm sorry" lines because they are not followed by anything needy or wanting things back, i especially liked the ones that were about being sorry about kissing and hugging and all those things that are supposed to be special between a couple, it comes off as thumbing your nose just enough; almost like i'm sorry i wasted my amazingness on you cause you didn't deserve it. i can't say enough about this piece, good luck in the contest!
