Currently serving weekends as the result of a DUI charge, the Alexander Henry High School Adult Education student says the poem was written about his ex-girlfriend.

This is the first time he has been published.

Although he doesn't plan on making poetry a career, he does intend on submitting other works and is happy to report that I Don't Need To Apologize will be included in a book to be published sometime in 2008.
