The Other Side

I know I'm not perfect

but who can ever be.

 

I'm saying sorry first,

I'm saying sorry last.

I'm saying sorry for the future,

but mainly for the past.

 

I'm sorry I wasn't there for you

and I'm sorry for not listening

when you need it most,

you were right to be mad.

 

I'm sorry that you felt the need to apoligize,

and I'm sorry that you were hurt.

I'm sorry that I can only see the good,

and avoid the bad.

 

I'm sorry for all my mistakes,

I'm saying sorry for being blinded

blinded by the perfect,

thou you and me never had a chance.

I'm the stupid one

I let you down and I feel it

we both made mistakes

and said wrong things.

 

Nobody's perfect

not even me and you.

so I'm sorry for that too,

I'm sorry for everything.

 

Please forgive me

I let you see a side,

I didn't want to be seen,

I'm sorry.

 

So please give me a second chance,

I really did love you

forever and always

 

 

I promise that side is gone

never coming back

it never should have showed

bu i guess it was for the best.

 

I love you,

and I'm sorry

sorry that you had to see my...

Good for you and Brad. We all have an OTHER SIDE, SouthernBelle. For the most part we keep that OTHER SIDE hidden until circumstances or just nature causes us to revel it. Two people sharing a life together because they have found love is precarious at best. After a time (when the honeymoon is over) our OTHER SIDE sometimes takes center stage with disastrous results. Good poem. I tip my hat to you and Brad.

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it

I really "enjoyed" this. It certainly speaks to me because of the fact that it reminds me of a relationship I had with one of my best friends. Great Job
