Lovers Penance

I’m sorry
I treated you different
I’m sorry
I set you apart
I must apologize
I thought I knew
What was best for you
Who was I
To think I could change you
I should have let you
Be you
And respect that
I’m sorry
I thought you wanted
Something new
I just tried to do
What I thought would please you
You know.
A nice change of pace
A breath of fresh air
A pleasant surprise
A brand new lease on life
A whole new outlook on life
So for all that
I’m sorry

I’m sorry
I thought I could do better
After so many lies
I thought Id give you the truth
After so much pain
I thought Id be your healing masseuse
But what’s the use
If that’s not what you want
And who knows better what you need
Than you
So if I was too much more
Than what you were used to
I’m sorry
If I was too honest
If I was too caring
If I was too sweet
And if I was too much less
Than what you were used to
I’m sorry
If I was less smothering
If I had less game
If I was less aggressive
If I wasn’t everything you’ve been waiting for
I’m sorry
If you were everything to me
I’m sorry
For failing you
For everything we could have been
For everything we never were
I apologize
For loving you



A question

Who are you?
Why do I feel I know you so well?
Where did you come from?
Why do I feel like I’ve been there before?
What are you doing to me?
Why do I want to do everything for you?
When did I fall in love with you?
Why do I fear well never be a pair?
All I know is I can’t stand for us to be apart.
All I know is you are everything.
And I will do everything for you.
And I suddenly feel brand new.
I’m lost when not with you.
I’m consumed by thoughts of you.
I don’t know how worthy I am of you.
I do know there’s no limit to what Id do
If only you’d ask me to.
If only you’d tell me what to do.
How about I win you the world?
How about I forsake all other girls?
How about you are my waking and dying thoughts?
How can I promise what you’ve already got?
You are the world for all I know.
You are the rising and the setting suns glow.
You are the reason I stay up at night.
You are the reason to get up and write.
You are the life I want to live.
You are the love I want to give.
You are the joy of conversation.
You are the object of my admiration.
You are timing when its impeccable.
You are my dreams when they’re unforgettable.
You are always just beyond my grasp.
You’re Moby Dick to my Captain Ahab.
I will never stop trying though.
I will make my miracle so.
I wont finish this poem though.
I don’t ever want to lose this flow.
I'll keep writing line after line.
I'll keep adding lines over time.
For every day you’re in my life.
From day one till you become my wife.
From honey moon til the rest of out life.
