Written in 10 minutes on Medium, and copy & pasted here.

Hey thanks for coming here to talk.

I won’t complain.

I’ll accept everything.

Because I know there’s no changing anything.

If

I could though —

Sorry. Won’t happen again.

I’ll stop trying to argue it away.

It’s just that it wasn’t just me.

It was me

and…

Wait,

I’m doing it again.

But,

it’s not like— -

No.

You’re right,

you’re right.

I’m excusing too much

And apologizing too little.

Wait, hey

don’t leave.

Please.

I just need to tell you this.

Look —

If

I could, I’d take it all back.

And

I know I can’t.

But,

I’m sorry.

I did this for myself. It was pretty fun. I actually did this on Medium, and I changed the ending slightly on this one because I accidently did "if, but, and" instead of "if, and, but," so I changed it here. I like it. It's not too bad. Not like award winning worthy or anything, but I like writing poems in a short amount of time. I'll try to do it in even less time because this was easy for me. Possibly because I tend to write them in a short span anyway.

Alright, thanks. Peace.
