"We only have today"

I'm sorry if i hurt you
I hope you know my Feeling
forgive me just the same.
Know i always tried

We only have today,
let our feelings show..
We are not promised, tomorrow

I'm sorry for all the hurt I've caused you.
When i hurt, you did too,
your tears, i also cried.
I know sorry's not enough
I lost my love. Cause of the things I've done

Yet, in the still of this life
My love has kept on growing for you.

That I'm not praying for you,
still loving you.

another lovely poem filled with true emotions and feelings. the readers can feel the sorrow and pain that you have worded in this piece. I much like the following lines of the poem:

"I'm sorry for all the hurt I've caused you.
When i hurt, you did too,
your tears, i also cried.
I know sorry's not enough
I lost my love. Cause of the things I've done "

Thanks for sharing. Keep writing

Sentimental... Deeply felt and penned by heart...
Just... Few words say so much.....
And sometimes I Don't get enough words to describe... So relatable ones...
Am glad to have come across this piece...

I think one of the things lacking from our society these days is the ability to convey a sincere apology that doesn't morph into somehow blaming the other person for our mistake(s). This is what you've done here . . . I mean, sincerely apologizing & owning what's happened & what's been done poorly. Our world would be a much better place if more people could do this. Your writing is conversational & a little bit raw, as in baring yourself to the other person. The only thing I don't really understand is (at the end) why would this be said: "I'm not praying for you" ??? Maybe you mean, I'm not praying that you will come back to me, but the way you say it, it sounds a teeny bit mean-spirited to not pray for a loved one!?!?!? Other than that, very good message.

Beautifully written. The last line summed up the whole poem for me. Great write.

I really enjoyed this. I know the emotions in this, and it resonated with me. Granted, things are different now, but I know these emotions pure. Promised is spelled wrong on line seven of the text, but it is still well written and I loved it.

This was such a beautiful poem. I could feel every last line. Each reached down and tugged at my heartstrings. Great job!
