Once I hurt a friend without meaning to.
Now I find it happened once more.
Once the hurt went through a brother.
Now the pain went through friends.
But both times, I started it.
I thought we were playing and having fun.
I thought it would end okay.
I was wrong.
I am ashamed.
I am sorry.
I can't unring a bell;
I wish I could.
I hope one day you will forgive me
For accidentally starting a gang up.
I'm going to slip out of your life for now.
But remember, I don't abandon friends.
So should you ask, I will answer.
And I will not forget this happened.
The scar is made.
So I'll be more careful,
Knowing now what I should have known then.
