Literary: Not Sorry

Ruefully made choices
Surprise me no longer;
Every day I live
By my deliberate wrongdoings
Their ghosts haunt me
As I bend back the fingers
That point at me accusingly
I’ve long washed myself of guilt
And I’ve long turned away
From the prospect of forgiving
Why repent
If I’d fall back in sin, anyway?
Why repent
If you’d take me back in, anyway?
So as much as I
Would like to feel remorse
It is with no contrition
That I say this:
Sorry,
You were just one
Of my wrong choices
