There's no use for it. What would an apology achieve. What could it ever achieve. It can't change the past.
The past is dead.
Most people never understand what I mean when I say that. They assume I mean it's worthless. Irrelevant. That it should be left behind, or that it no longer possesses any power. But you and I... I think we know our dead. Our lost. I think we know what it is, to carry them.
Death doesn't change the nature of anything, only our ability to reach and affect it. No. Death is the opposite of change. It freezes. It locks what it claims in place and locks us out. That's why I don't believe in forgiveness. I don't believe it's truly possible.
