Apologetic word

An apologetic word
Freed itself from a bunch of sins and manners
And mixed with the cold January breeze,
Broken in confused particles
Breezing as they rushed by
In millions microscopic grains

Carrying with them the wholeness

Of a badly worded regret…
A word freed itself tonight
Before the stars
Had a chance to shine, and
Before the moon
Could offer this evening
Some smoothness, some grace…
Though aimed
At a sole ear to be heard,
A sole mind to be thought of
Its’ flying particles
Come together and sit;
Waiting for my verdict in vain-
I have them forgiven!
