A flaw I wish to be rid of is taking the blame
Thinking I was the problem
And letting myself be easily convinced of it
I feel the need to apologize for the things done to me
"Sorry for letting you call me names"
"Sorry for not ducking"
"Sorry for speaking up"
I feel the urge to apologize over everything and maybe I just feel so incompetent that I beg for approval
But I need to remember to listen to that voice deep within me that whispers
"Not every bad thing that happens in life is your fault. Sometimes you are blameless and you deserve an apology because you are worth more than you believe."
