A beautiful word created for us to make mistakes!
A word so frequently used, not sure what it takes,
A slightest nudge and pops out the word without a fuss,
Yet when a grave mistake happens it’s not enough!
Has the word been so loosely used for years,
That it has lost its sheen, fodder only for ears
It at times feels the solace in it is lost
Providing lip service, without any cost!
Should we come up with something else?
Which will mean something to the apologetic self?
Or should we simply do away with the word?
When in reality it is empty and at times unheard!
Won’t the word be enriched, if sprinkled with regret indeed,
Not just a namesake but remorse for the deed,
Repent for the act, seeking penitence,
And not just a pretence to do away with impertinence!

Nice one. I agree with you, the word sorry has no meaning now a days..or did it have any earlier as well?
