The Jerk

The Jerk

I'm sorry that we parted.
I'm sorry that you're alone.
The fault is all on me.
Don't even think you did me wrong.

I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough
to withstand your spiteful words.
I must be too sensitive if the
nastiness was all I heard.

I'm sorry for my ego.
Your importance I should have known.
I guess I should have asked your
permission to think on my own.

I'm sorry for being difficult
and not doing things always your way,
but I really thought I was smart enough
to make just one decision today.

I'm sorry that I'm a woman
who had needs and self-respect.
I'm sorry I thought you deserved me.
But frankly you're easy to forget.

I'm sorry I'm not devastated,
over the fact that you're gone
But I've wasted enough of my time
so now I am moving on.
