I am sorry,

So sorry that I changed,

That I refused to be caged,

Confined in that cage you called love,

A love that we both know you tainted.

I am sorry..

That I rarely call nor text,

That your presence makes no difference,

That I care less than I used to,

How could I water a dead flower.

I am sorry...

That I am now happy,

Happier than when I was with you,

That with time I eventually healed,

That you no longer cross my mind leave alone being there.

I am sorry...

That your jokes to me are no longer funny,

That your laughter doesn't tickle me like it used to,

That arguing with you is now past tense,

That I am no longer jealous because there is nothing to feel jealous of you.

I am sorry...

That the butterflies I used to feel flew away,

That you now became unattractive,

That the fire you used to ignite came to extinction,

That your songs lost rythm I can no longer dance to your tune.

I am sorry...

That the future we saw together is no longer there,

That the goals we had are no longer achievable,

That the strong bond we had grew weak,

I am sorry that I fell out of love with you.
