I must apologize to you
for thinking of you as the man of my dreams
when you did not choose to be-
for making you the love of my life,
for wanting to be your wife.
∼
I am so very sorry
for all of my attempts
and all my wasted efforts
in building you into something you were not;
You hit the ground with such a thump
from atop that pedestal you fell from.
∼
I hope you can forgive me
for seeing the light in your eyes
that took away all my darkness,
for making you my one,
but now its all undone.
∼
I stand before you bare
as I humbly seek your pardon,
for as I burdened you with my love
I neglected to tend my own garden.
∼
How could I be so wrong,
How could I be so stupid,
always being there for you,
forcing you to take me for granted,
and not being what you wanted.
∼
This is my mea culpa
I seek penance for my crime,
And pray you can absolve me
as I gift you back your time.
