I’m Sorry: A Dectina Refrain
Written for Sadje’s What Do You See #232

Iβm
sorry
for the things
I said and did.
Thereβs no greater pain
than brothers grown apart.
How I have prayed for this day
when we put our anger to rest
and cried βI love you, my dear brotherβ.
Iβm sorry for the things I said and did.
