When I say I’m sorry, 
Is it because I regret what I did
Or because I believe others want me to regret it?
Is it because I have taken honest ownership of my actions
And have a genuine desire to make amends
Or because I fear someone else’s reaction to my perceived transgression?
Is it all a projection of retained childhood discomfort from
When my mother forced me to apologize to her
Although I wasn’t sorry?
Or was I actually sorry and just wasn’t mature enough
To realize it?
