I Really Do

by Tripp   Jan 21, 2009


You were my purpose, you were my goal
You were my heart and you were my soul
You are my love, you are perfect for me
Yet for you I am not, who you want me to be

For what's deserved I've given what's not
I've given to you what I should have begot
I've given you pain, misery, deception and lies
with each one of my transgressions, part of us dies

Yet for every life lost another begins anew
as each day passes I realize what's true...
and I realize that well Becky,
I really do love you

For once upon a time we said "forever"
and we were both convinced we would end never
Well the day has come for me to prove what's true
the day has come for me to prove,
I really do love you

    Oh woww ,
    it flowed so nicely,
    and i really enjoyed it,
    especially how it ended with the 'i love you' bit.

    I really enjoyed this poem, To be honest it's one of the best iv'e seen on here in a while =]

    The flow was carried through all of your stanza's and the rhyme was consistant, great work. As for the poem it's self I found it to be an emotionally honest piece that was beautifully written.
    5/5
