Do you know?
I walked past you today
Do you know?
the courage I have mustered just to walk past you.
The guilt
eating me away
the sinking feeling
in my stomach
the way my feet
reacts
When my eyes see you

What am I afraid of?
Do you know?
not talking to you
Ignoring
for my own good
for yours
Is that wrong?
The guilt
the weariness
seeing you alone
Do you know?
I wish we could be back together
Do you know?
I’m sorry.
Very sorry
But I don’t think
what I have done can be erased
It is there
forever ever after
You hate me
Do you know?
I figured that out long ago
Sorry
This is all I can say.
Sorry.

 I wish to apologize, but I don't even have the courage to talk to you. I don't think my million apologies can heal your wounded heart or your eyes that stare at me with hatred as I finally pass by you.
