Love Poem: I'M Sorry

I'M Sorry

I always make the wrong choices
Listen to the devil and his evil voices
I can't count the battles I've lost
But the war is what I try to win
Most mistakes I can't take back
Or right the wrong back on track
But I have to try my best
And then to you I leave the rest

I miss how it was before
Even though I kicked down the door
That you lovingly held open for me
The good thing I had I just couldn't see
All the things I should've said and meant
And a million apologies couldn't dent
The pain I know I left with you
There's no excuse for the things I do

No way to take it all away
No Magic words I can say
It was so hard to tell I even cared
I didn't deserve what was shared
You held out your heart to me
As I now wear my heart on my sleeve
Love and trust forever are broken
And all I'm left with is this token
A permanent reminder of my own stupidity
The memories of how it could be

I'm sure you hate me with all your might
And detest the thought, the very sight
I can't now look you in the eye
For my guilt burns like a brutal lie
Every ounce of my soul is bleeding
While my heart to you is pleading
To erase my mistakes before I die
From the regret of not being man enough to try

I don't expect you to ever forgive me
I just hope you believe me,
I'm sorry for not being true
For starting and not following through
Please believe if I could do it again
Beside you still, I would've been
Holding your hand everywhere we'd go
That's just a dream of mine now I know
Still, I'm sorry to your heart from mine
And I still love you; I have the entire time
