“Why are you crying?”
“You know why I’m crying!”
It’s a trap, I can feel it. Its something I did, I know that much, but I don’t know what I did. There is a way out of this though.
“Ok, I’m sorry.”
“Really,” the crying had paused and she looked happy but then, “What are you sorry about?”
Shit.
“You know….”
“You have no idea why you are apologizing do you?”
It was a nice try, but as I always say you can’t win them all. Though for once I would like to win one.
“Not a clue.”
With that she started crying again.
“Please stop crying.”
Nothing.
“Please stop crying?”
Now it was getting worse.
“Stop crying, stop crying. Oh dear god, please stop crying.”

Sounds like many a conversation I have had, but I have learned to say I'm 'sorry' too much anymore.
Although I did say it today to a friend.
John, you're wonderful. I apologize without knowing what for *constantly*... It is dreadful isn't it? But does make for some lovely prose.
John I like it even if u couldn't win you still made a play at it and took the risk
WOW this so does not sound like me :D
