Light Switch

I'm so sorry 
I am so so so
So so so sorry

That's from way back
When I was still acting
Like a selfish asshole, so
Was sarcastic & narcissistic
For I be only seeing Ü from Me
Thus, never truly considering
Your Life & your difficulty
At least not the real way
I was pretending to be

When I started writing
I didn't mean to say
Sorry, & I was even
Trying not to, but
Not because I am not;
I truly do apologize, but
I wanted to prove how this Time
I am telling the Truth, by Me doing
The opposite of Whö I have always been

Then as if a light switch flips
Struck like a bolt of lighting
Thrown by Hera when She heard
How Zeus had led Me to abuse Ü
For something I'd been confused

[13 December 2023 Revision]

I'm so sorry 
I am so so so
So so so sorry

That's from way back
When I was still acting
Like a selfish asshole, so
Was sarcastic & narcissistic

Then as if a light switch flips
Struck like a bolt of lighting
Thrown by Hera when She heard
How Zeus had led Me to abuse Ü
For something I'd been confused

For I only be seeing Ü from Me
Thus, never truly considering
Your Life & your difficulty
At least not the real way
I was pretending to be

When I began to write
I didn't mean to say
Sorry, and actually
Trying not to, but
Not because I'm not

I truly do apologize, though
I wanted to prove how this Time
I'm telling the Truth, by Me doing
The opposite of Whö I've always been

I'm so sorry 
I am so so so
So so so sorry

That's from back when I was still
Acting like a selfish asshole
& being oh-so narcissistic
So only seeing Ü from Me
& never truly considering
Your Life, your difficulty
At least not the real way
I was pretending to be

So though when I started writing
I didn't intend to say sorry
& was trying not to, but
Not because I'm not
For I truly do apologize
But because I wanted to prove
This Time I am telling the Truth
By Me doing the opposite of
Whö I've always been

Then as if a light switch flips
Struck like a bolt of lighting
Thrown by Hera when She heard
How Zeus had led Me to abuse Ü
For something I'd been confused

But that was back when I was still
Acting like a selfish asshole
& being oh-so narcissistic
So only seeing Ü from Me
Never truly considering
Your Life's difficulty
At least, not the way
I'm pretending to be

When I started writing
I did not mean to say
Sorry, because I was
Trying not to, but
Not because I am not
For I truly apologize, but
Because of my wanting to prove
This time, I'm telling the Truth by
Going opposite of Whö I've always been

The opposite of Whö I've always been

[Original: (untitled poem) | 30 November 2022]

I'm so sorry
I am so so so
So so sorry

When I started writing
I didn't intend to say sorry
I was trying not to
Not because I'm not
For I truly apologize
But because I wanted to prove
That this time would be true
By doing the opposite of
What I always do

But that was when I was still
Acting a selfish asshole
& being oh-so narcissistic
Only seeing You from Me
Never truly considering
Your Life, your difficulty
At least not the way
I was pretending to be

Then as if light switch flips
Struck like a bolt of lighting
Thrown by Hera when She heard
How Zeus had led me to abuse
You for something I'd confused
