Does anyone know the author of this poem? APOLOGIZE In the fury of the moment, when the words of wrath rang out, When my mind was filled with questions, and my head was filled with doubt, I can still see sadness, heartbreak, and sorrow in your eyes. How can flowers live in darkness? How can I apologize? For the darkness I've created, in a world that used to shine, I have wilted all the roses, and I've spoiled all the wine. Please get out your magic pencil, and erase those cloudy skies. Then draw a picture of me saying......I apologize. See the sunlight reappearing, through the shrouds of dark and gloom, As I hear the words forgiving, and watch the flowers bloom. After time has lost that moment, and we've mended broken ties, I'll still be on my knees saying......I apologize.
