2 Apology

I wanted to have the last word….. SORRY.

Seeing you hurting is harder than me admitting I’m wrong. I’m sorry.

* * *

I want to kiss and make up because I was wrong and I’m sorry. Please forgive me.

* * *

I’m not going to have peace until you forgive me for the hurt I’ve caused you. I’m so sorry.

* * *

You needed a shoulder to cry on and someone to talk to. Sorry I wasn’t there for you.

* * *

Please forgive me for the words I said but did not mean. Know that when I say sorry I mean it.

* * *

I want to mend our friendship and be a better friend. Sorry to put you through such a hard time.

* * *

I love you for your forgiving nature, your understanding and for you. Thank you.

* * *

Nothing would be too hard or too much to accomplish if it meant I would have your love and forgiveness for the damage I have done, I’m sorry.

Please tell me we are not beyond repair. I’m so sorry and I hope it’s not too late.

* * *

You were right, I was wrong…. Sorry.

* * *

Sometimes the magic word isn’t “please” – it’s “sorry”. Please accept this magic word from me.

* * *

The gracious gift of an apology can sometimes be just the gift you need. Please accept mine.

* * *

You lose sixty seconds of happiness for every minute you’re angry. Sorry for taking away your happiness time.

Words should always be soft and tender in case you ever have to eat them. Got sauce?

Apologies should never contain an excuse. I’m just sorry.

* * *

If I didn’t bruise so easily I’d let you sock me one!

* * *

Sorry I’ve been such a… you know what!

* * *

Sorry I made your day less than wonderful.

I can’t begin to tell you enough, just how sorry I am.
