sorry i said i'm sorry

i tell her i'm
sorry,
she says, i'm sorry too.
really, i ask,
what are you sorry for.
she looks at me
wide eyed
and says,
i just said it because you
said it.
but, i say,
what exactly are you sorry
for, come on,
be specific.
i have time, i have
all day.
you go first, she says,
then it's my turn
if i can think
of anything.
