When words are all you have, make him a sweet list of all the things you love about him. Alternatively, you can also make an 'all the things I did wrong' and 'how I will make it up to you' lists. This will show him how you're truly sorry, and how you want to do your best to earn his forgiveness.

Keep the focus on your actions—things like “I'm sorry you felt mad” or “I'm sorry you misunderstood me” don't get to the heart of the issue. Try things like: “I'm sorry that I blew up at you last night.” “I apologize for giving you the cold shoulder this week.”
“I'm really sorry about what happened earlier.” “I wanted to apologize for hurting your feelings.” “I wish I could tell you this in person, but a text will have to do. I'm so sorry.”
Let him see you having fun and enjoying yourself without him. If he sees how happy you can be without him, he may feel sorry for doing what he did to lose you. Don't sulk when you are not around him. He might take that as a sign that you are missing him.
“I'll always be here for you.”“I love our life together.”“I love planning our future together—there's so much to look forward to.”“You're the most important person in my life.”
Now there can be two reasons for doing that :- a) They are really really hurt and just can't accept your apology so soon. b) They just want you to feel guilty as for their happiness. They were looking for a chance to maintain a distance from you and now as you're at fault, they've got a good excuse to be away from you.
Acknowledge. Make it clear that you know what you did was wrong. It's worth explaining the reasons why what you did was wrong, to show that you understand what you've done. Then it's important to talk about what you could have done differently, so it's super obvious you've put a lot of thought into it.
Actually use the words “I'm sorry” or “I apologize.” Name or specify the infraction you're apologizing for. Show you understand why your actions were harmful and hurtful, and the effect it had on the other person. Don't make excuses, but offer an explanation if needed.
