As the days come and go.

I still stare at the sky.

As I watch the clouds go by.

I swear my heart is right.

Just get up and walk away.

For you were always right.

Sorry is never enough.

But as I stare at this sky,

sorry will have to do...

What inspired me to write this?

I was In a fight with my mom. And I knew sorry was the only thing i could say, even though I thought I was right, I knew she was right all along.
