An Unspoken Apology

#

By Maryam BatoolPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

If I am silent, it could be something new

I have you in my heart, and I swear; it's true

.

If I don't speak, maybe I'm terrified too

I'm sad as well— It's not alone YOU

.

I do make mistakes and I am sorry, See

I am not an angel, neither have I the key

.

But, I wanted you to never cry, my friend

I believe you're there, and it's not our end

.

Now it's my turn to mend and repair it all

We'll grow again, this time without a fall

.

I know you will understand my word

You can decipher all clear and blurred

.

For if I don't speak, the poet in me

Would scream to you, and set my words free

.

When I don't have the words to tell

Read my poem, Oh! you read it, well

.

If you read it then, please give a smile

Please, widen your lips; even for a while

.

When things aren't in my hands or yours

Let time fix it, and open new doors

.

I'm not a traitor, I don't break apart

You have my respect, deep in my heart

.
