I just want to say
Something meaningful
Something that
Will make you rethink
What you think about me
.
But your mind is closed
But maybe
If I could just say
Something meaningful
It would open
.
I want to be able
To make the sun shine
Brighter with my words
And the world
To become kinder
.
I want to change the past
Change what has been done to you
I want to make you all
Feel safe
And I don’t know how to do that yet
.
Because you obviously don’t
Feel safe around me
And I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to say
And I am afraid of making it worse
.
I dont want to come off
As one of them
When I ask
For the same thing we all want
Equality
.
And so I wont say anything
But know I still wonder
What would have changed
If I had said
Something meaningful
.
Instead of getting
Scared and intimidated
By your words
And saying things
I shouldn’t have said
.
This is my apology
And also a plead
Given out of desperation
To make it
Better again
.
My plead is simple
But it requires a lot of thought
Tell me what
“Something meaningful”
Is to you
.
What would I
Have had to say
To make your aggression
Fade to consideration
Of your actions
.
I am not accusing
Just wishing
We hadn’t ended
On such a bad note
And I am sorry
