all apologies

if I am the most selfish person 
in the history of the world 
I LOVE and forgive myself 

if I have failed to 
make something of myself 
on my own
without help
& have
INSTEAD 
needed help
& then
failed to 
PROPERLY 
live up to the intended quid quo pro
SORRY not SORRY 

I have done my best
not to promise 
MORE
than I could deliver
& HISTORICALLY 
I have pushed myself to the point of self injury 

to live up to
not just what I promised 
BUT 
to fulfill 
EVERY EXPECTATION 
that I could 
DETECT

I apologize to myself for THAT
