I'm sorry for all of the disappointments,

and for the shattered pieces of porcelain on the ground,

and the watermarks,

though I should have known. 

I'm sorry for the impossible demands

I'm sorry for the waxy birthday cake, 

I don't think any of us could have put the flames out fast enough. 

I'm sorry for the giant drawing on the wall that lion erasers were made for, 

for your shitty pumpkin soup that you put so much effort into,

but I thought was disgusting. 

I'm sorry for all the snot and my trumpet-borderline-elephant blows 

I'm sorry about all the pills, 

at the time I was only thinking about how they'd affect me,

and not you too

I'm sorry for all of the sorry's. 

i'm sorry for all of the things I've had to say sorry for. 

I'm sorry that I might not mean all of these sorry's, 

I wish I wasn't such a teenager.
