Flash Fiction Friday



Author:Larry Moon
55 Words
True Life Poem



I'm Sorry



Sorry for the times we've never spent. Sorry for the places we've never went. Sorry for the pictures never taken. Sorry for the love that has been foresaken. Sorry for no albums of the high school prom, or the football games my son had won. I'm sorry for the life we've never had.

I worry sometimes that I will end out the same, though The Boy insists he isn't interested in proms or football.

C'Mon...No one remembers Ryan O'Neil and Allie Mcgraw?
"Love means Never having to say your sorry."
Unless of course you were wrong and a dip-shit, then maybe you should be sorry.
Excellent 55 Larry!
Thanks for visiting and playing again this Friday...You Da Man!
