sorry for my neglect vs sorry for my careless

Both phrases are correct, but they have slightly different meanings. 'Sorry for my neglect' implies that the person is apologizing for not paying enough attention or care to something or someone. On the other hand, 'Sorry for my careless' implies that the person is apologizing for being inattentive or not taking enough care in a situation; 'careless' needs to be followed by at least one more word in order for the sentence to be correct.
