Words Don't Mean A Thing
(non-edited version)
To : Mummy & Papa.
I didn't mean it,
Those things I might have said or did.
I never meant it,
I swear I never did.
I said I'm sorry,
Though it meant nothing to them.
I'm really sorry,
I swear I really am.
But "words don't mean a thing", they said,
Until real actions are whole-heatedly made.
"I'm trying really hard," I said,
And its ringing in my head.
So I gave up trying to apologize,
As they said, my words don't mean a thing.
And they looked me directly in the eyes and said,
"Action is the thing".
And since that very day, that certain day,
I stared to wonder then I realized.
What am I doing, night and day,
I don't want to ruin their lives.
To cover up all my wrong-doings and lies,
How I use to argue and pretend.
But I've changed for the better in life,
And I'll keep my promise to them until the very end.
