forgive me for the soda stains
it was a windy day and it blew my mind
i have at other times taken great pains
to be a person who's gentle and kind

forgive me for the shouted words
the rain was loud and it beat me down
normally i speak just loud enough to be heard
or with dry eyes speak without a sound

i don't know what got into me
i don't know what came over me
i don't know who came out of me
it isn't me
it wasn't me
so forgive me
please forgive.
