i’m sorry
i closed my eyes
for too long

i’m sorry
i turned my back on you
and left you in your cell

i’m sorry
i ignored you
when i put your life on the line

i’m sorry
i let them whisk you away
and not defend you for a second

i’m sorry
i never told you how much i care
or how much i love you

i’m sorry
that the only reason i’m sorry
is that i miss you
