This is just to say
Sorry for leaving in the midst of all the chaos
Forgetting to tell you everything
That you surely needed me to
Forgetting to call your name
as you walked down the hall
Forgetting to wave to you
as you walked by me
Forgetting to hold your hand
as we strolled down mainstreet
This is just to say sorry
For forgetting to tell you
I love you.

    I’m a big believer in free verse, and this was free verse at its loveliest. I really like the simplicity of it. Great!

    I think verse is dangerous and should be locked with as little freedom as possible. I feel the same away about yappy lap dogs. That aside, I thought this was lovely, an ode to the shy, would-be lover. Goodness knows I’ve been there enough times.
