How long do you have to say sorry?
How often must you make amends?
For all the silly things that happened
When you were stupid enough to offend?
How many years does it take you?
How many times to offer up your prayers?
To make up for those silly offences
That took you by surprise: unawares
Is it an infinite exclamation: over many years?
Is it seventy times seven just like the Bible says?
Why do you have to continue the abasement?
Why continue kneeling over and over again?
It is to God we must apologise: not man: he is weak
Isn't it enough: said with feeling: bringing you to tears!
