This Is Just To Say 


This is just to say sorry 

For wearing that green dress on a date 

And walking like a runway model 


For catching your eye 

And the eye of that other guy across the room 

For smiling back at everyone I saw that day 


This is just to say sorry 

For my kick-*ss confidence 

That has always made you so insecure 


The author's comments:

This is a short, spontaneously written piece that I felt shared the important idea of self confidence being expressed through irony.
