Sorry if I flinch

When you make a sudden movement.

Sorry if I recoil

From your touch.

Sorry if I jump in response

To an unexpected noise.

Sorry if I don’t talk

All that much.

Sorry I can’t look you in the eye when

You speak to me.

Sorry if it seems I

Utter words in whispers.

Sorry if I am too sorry

You see,

It’s become

First nature

For me.
