I'm sorry

The pain I cause
The stress I build
Self destruction I've helped.

The way I cared.
Helping you through all
Judging you not.

Trust I gave out
Loving you unconditionally
Beating myself up.

I caused you pain
I took your happiness
I stole good times.

Making mistakes
Feeling guilty
Crying on your floor

I know I'm bad for you
I steal your smiles
Letting go.

I'm sorry for all the hurt I've caused, I'm sorry that despite my efforts I can't be better for you, I'm sorry that I blame myself for everything, most of all I'm sorry that I fueled the fire that caused you to loose control.

Great work here

Sun what a piece of work, I know you really went out with this one and to be a man and apologize is the best thing a man can do when he knows he is been wrong, (woman also) to realize and accept things for what they truly are is a big part of the growing up. Love it guy and you know it. Sorry have not visited you much lately have been distracted a bit the last couple of weeks. Just as I give it another read should it read the stress I built instead of build. You let me know. It is a very brave poem. Good job here Bravo to you Love,Mona TIME well spent is TIME well lived
