Sorry. What
is sorry? Everyone keeps saying that word, as if it is supposed to bring some
sort of divine healing, make me feel as if the angels are watching over me…and
the more it is said, the more it agitates my soul.
Sorry –what
a weak word, what a stupid word! It won’t cure me; it won’t make me any happier
than the minute before. Someone takes a fall to the ground and we say sorry. It
does not pick them up, let alone lessen the pain that their knee caps are
experiencing. The incessant way in which we use this word is worse than an
addict’s enslavement to his drug.
Sorry does
not strengthen me, or quell the fire in my insides. The sound of their voices
flow over me like waves, I am not listening to the words, I am numbed by the
horror of my experience. It is an unending nightmare.
I began 2012
filled with eager hope, thinking that it was perhaps, a new beginning, a door
to a new life. It doesn’t really matter now? Nothing is new, nothing has
transformed.
All the
misery that has been pent up inside me is breaking, erupting in a torrent…flowing
relentlessly, like a river in flood.
Another
good-hearted person comes along with a ‘sorry’ running out of their mouths.
Using my uncanny ability to pretend, I smile and take it in.
I am losing
my patience.......
