leave a message by the phone
‘if you called to say yr sorry
call somebody else
i dont use em anymore’
i let sorry/ didnt meanta/ & how cd i know abt that

& race the engine
& tell all yr secrets bout yrself to yr face
& i will list in detail everyone of my wonderful lovers
& their ways
i will play oliver lake

& i wont be sorry for none of it

i loved you on purpose
i was open on purpose
i still crave vulnerability
& close talk
& i’m not even sorry

next time
you should admit
you’re mean/ low-down/ triflin/ & no count straight out
steada bein sorry alla the time

Lifted this from dictionary.com. Nice definition of sorry. I'm tired of sorry. People do something and immediately tell you that they are sorry. I'm SORRY but that shit has lost it's power. How can you be sorry and so the same thing over and over again? Find a new word, please give me some new word, or how bout you be honest and say you don't give a shit enough to even recognize how selfish you are. That's really what it comes down too. People claim to care but not enough to realize what they are sorry for is preventable. I mean of course keep it in perspective sometimes people have ridiculous expectations. Fortunately I'm not one of those people. I'm done with sorry. Sorry can go straight to hell. So from now on don't tell me "Sorry" just say hey Patrick "Fuck you I do what I want." I appreciate that more then some half-assed sorry.

I feel better.
