NOT BAD

I am not so bad as you think I am

I could not be.

There is no way

in the time I have been on this planet

I could have done

HALF the things you've accused me of

performed a percentage of the atrocities

you think fill my planner.

I am no so rotten and evil

as to have torched your computer

or your girlfriend

or our stash

- nor am I that stupid.

I am self-serving.

I am imperfect.

I have done things wrong

to you

and to myself.

I beg your forgiveness

but I am not so bad all that.

I couldn't be...
