Apologizing is different from begging, it doesn't change your status, go ahead and get on your knees, spill tears if you got it, for the person you offended, if at all you had a place in their hearts, you'll be totally forgiven and accepted.

I’m sorry.’ The two most inadequate words in the English language.

Comfort came in and stood with an appearance of guilt and shame.
Her head bent, her eyes soaked with tears, her hands and legs, vibrating like a guiter string as perspiration covered her entire body, she felt like disappearing into the thin air, maybe to another mind creating world.

I’m sorry. Oh, what simple words are these!
I’m sorry. Lips should breathe them out with ease!
But nay, in barring up the way,
“I’ll die first” are the words you say.
I’m sorry, woe is all pride guarantees.

Apologizing does not always mean you're wrong and the other person is right. It just means you value your relationship more than your ego.

I’m sorry.” Once again, those were the words. And now, anytime someone says I’m sorry, I’m going to think of her.
