Sorry Not Sorry
Today in my Q&A for Writers journal, the prompt asked me to write an apology in the form of a poem. Right now--perhaps for the first time in my life--I am not feeling the need to apologize for anything. Here's my anti-apology. Sorry Not Sorry by Annmarie Ferry Sorry not sorry for speaking my mind, calling you out on your bullshit, holding you responsible for your careless actions. Sorry not sorry for being myself, embracing my uniqueness, living unafraid of not being cool enough, fun enough, everything enough. Sorry not sorry for letting go, releasing the things that no longer serve me, removing the shackles of the expectations of others. Sorry not sorry for shedding my skin, changing my facade every so often, seeking my truth while searching for my place in the world. Sorry. Not sorry.
