Your yelling runs down my back
I choke as it grips my throat
Be the bigger person they say
Don’t yell back and don’t respond,
Be quiet
You let out everything on me
Pouring your problems on my shoulders to carry
I must be the one to apologize
I must be the one to stay silent
You’re still angry at me and you still won’t forgive
We both messed up
I am still the one to apologize, not you
You need to say sorry
For all the hurt you’ve given me
For all the worry you’ve brought me
You must say sorry
That’s all I need
I won’t bother you anymore
I’m tired of being silent
I will speak up and show my side
No more apologies from me
Not until you admit of what you’ve done wrong
The fight itself didn’t hurt,
It hurt more that you didn’t apologize
