Roughly rolling thru life

I’m a little

Rough around the edges

Some days more than a little

Occasionally

I entertain myself

By softening the edges

Polishing myself up

But like most shiny things

The sparkle eventually dulls

And then it’s just

Rough old me

Rolling through life

Not fully aware of my impact

Thinking

I should probably apologize

Knowing

That I probably won’t
