An apology from the heart

How do I say this,I really don’t know where to start
All I know is whatever I say is coming straight from the heart
I am sitting here with tears in my eyes
Thinking about all I put you through,remembering all the lies

girl to think you called me a friend
But I hurt you so bad that I doubt your pain will ever end
Now its within my powers to make things right
Im not asking for forgiveness cause im not trying to feel alright

I just wanna do right by you and admit that I was very wrong
And looking back at my actions I now feel very much less than a man
But I gotta give you credit girl,no matter what you held on strong
Accepting whatever I did,never once demanding an explanation

Oh girl I shudder now thinking about the tears you must have cried
Your heart reaching out to me and forever being denied
What was I thinking, god what did I do
Sadly I was well aware of my actions oh god help me I knew

Girl I abused your kindness, mistook it for weakness
Knew that you loved me but hardly acknowledged it
I relished the attention and went along for the ride
Never once stopping to think how you must be hurting inside

I knew I could not love you the way that I should
But instead of moving along like a real man would
I stayed and took you for all you were worth
Accepting your kindness while repaying you with hurt

You might wonder why im doing this girl you may not understand
Well I want the whole world to know the kind of dog that I am
I wanna experience all the pain I’ve put you through
I want them to know I never did or ever will deserve someone like you

I wanna send a message to other girls out there
Beware for guys like me aren’t very rare
No matter how much you love them find the strength to tell them no
For when they are through you have nothing but a broken heart to show

Girl still take heart in knowing
With guys like me,our day for hurting is never far in coming
And I know I will one day experience all I’ve put you through
I just hope I will be man enough to handle it as classy as you

girl I wish you happiness,i hope you will find someone much better
and I pray I haven’t destroyed your faith in true love forever
as for me I’ve learnt a lot from you ,how to care for someone
and if nothing else I now know how to be a real man

I owe you so much girl which I ‘ll never be able to repay
Just know you can count on me anytime whether it be night or day
And if you do find someone and he dares treat you badly
just call on me and you will see i will be there in a hurry
baby... I am really truly sorry

I love this!!!

That's very good.

Beautiful! If true, it looks like you have at least learned some lessons as well.

Super write, love the emotions behind this.

If true that is the question.I doubt it tho

I dunno...My gut feeling is that it would be hard to demonstrate that kind of emotion if you weren't feeling it...

i still doubt it I wouldn't be surprised if he copied it from somewhere.

He has posted several poems.

Awesome write....


To those that doubt maybe you should do a bit of research to back up your stories before accusing others what is and is not theirs...JMO

Wow.. I dont know if i should be flattered or insulted here.but i am an understanding person so i do know that happens on here a lot, where people copy and paste other people's works.I am a bit taken aback though, at how strong a position you have taken on this.You are almost certain i didnt write it.In which case i gotta ask..What is it about the poem or me that makes you so strongly convinced that i didnt write it? I would gladly direct you to my Facebook page if you still remain unconvinced

this may seem silly
or wee-off a bit

this heartfelt write
i think
you wrote it

if one disagrees
by word with no
proof

it just seems silly
like "oops!"
someone goofed











very well done poeticbway!

it is very unfair to make an accusation like this and not offer up any proof, other than you “doubt” the integrity of the post. and yes you are allowed your opinion but, when you say something that can be damaging like this, i feel you should also back up your statement with some sort of evidence and not just an opinion...


p-way...
weather you lived this or not is of no consequence. you have demonstrated an understanding of the subject and passed along the lesson well. nicely done...

While reading this, I thought of my youngest daughter, plagued by the abuse and hurts she will always feel and see when she looks in her son's eyes. I thought how wonderful it would be and how healing she could use to be told in this way, to see it demonstrated in her life. It hit me home where life has been so hard for her, knowing her son lives with the man she thought loved her and would not place her in harms way like he did. How unjust the system is that ripped her son from her, only to place him in his care because of money. How she longs for the opportunity to see forgiveness, and mercy..

thank you for your personal exposure.

It home for me. thank you
