A word used over a thousand times
For the shaken ones
Who were used as pawns in a dangerous game

Ties cut short
For we have been mistaken
Our shattered hearts now surrounded by a fort

In reality your halfhearted apology
Is nothing but a meaningless plea

I’m sorry—
You think I’m bluffing

I’m sorry—
I didn’t mean it

Strike again
Our friendship never mends

I’m sorry, please forgive me
You say once more

But I walk away
And I don’t regret not looking back
Even till this very day

The day you knew I would forever be away
The day you knew my dignity would stay

I’m sorry please forgive me—
Why did you leave me?
Me—
The one who was there

You
Were
Never
There
