An Attempt

It’s not like I won’t confess
That I got me in this mess
I’m able to take the blame
So I’ll suffer through the shame
I don’t believe it’s okay
To try to shift it away
I know I won’t enjoy it
But the punishment should fit
All the crimes I have done
To you and to everyone
So now I’ll apologize
I’ll be honest, no more lies
I know no one is perfect
So now, that I will respect
Especially since I’m not
I guess that I just forgot
I’ll remember to give love
To others and you above
Now I will try to be good
I really think we all should
