Apology

Sorry, love
I didn’t mean to hurt you, I apologize
I love your hands
Please come out
Out from behind the red holly tree
I’ll prune their horns

Foolish tongue
Speak kindly to a lady, your ever-wife
And wash her arms
Holy light
See it through the window of her skin
A mirror shines

Sorry, love
I didn’t mean to hurt you, I apologize
Know I love you
