I'm Sorry

Your little train crash is at it again
You must have said something that didn't fit in with
My plans of lying here forever and ever
An emotional wreck
I'm not my best at the best of times
I'm sorry
I don't mean to cry everytime we have sex

Those last three lines strip away self delusion like acid on cheap paint. Love it. Love it.

Brief, concise and very, very poignant. I love the feel of this piece.

As much as I love something that's concise and to the point, this could benefit from some additions. The idea is there, and I like what it's saying, it just doesn't say enough of it to really hit me. You're certainly on the right path though.

I would have to agree with SFNovelwriter here.. And I think there could be a little bit more powerful imagery if you made it just a couple lines longer. Overall, it's a nice piece of work.

I think it's a lovely piece, but the thing to remember is that this person is someone special to another and crying after sex is well an emotional release and if he's a real man, he will understand. It is definatly a short but powerful piece.
