sorry sorrys

I uttered
sorry so many times
back when I was young
because girls and women
knew sorry was supposed
to deliver sweetness
the same way a coin in
a bubblegum machine
did but it didn’t it just
reinforced that we were
seen as less than and
expected to make nice
to make other people
happy instead of ourselves
fuck that
