The Hurt I've Caused

Look at me,
I mean really look at me for once.
Am I really what you want?
Is this the sh*t you want to go through?
Is this the person you want to be with,
For the rest of your life?
When I look at you,
I answer yes to all of them.
When I look at you,
I see a man,
Who is perfect for me even with his flaws.
I see a man who loves me,
With all of his heart,
Or he wouldn't still be here today.
And for all of the wonderful things,
That you have done for me,
I want you to be happy.

If you are truly happy,
Here with me,
Then stay forever.
But if you're not,
Please don't let me hurt you anymore.
Please don't put yourself,
Through all of this.
I need your help,
I admit this.
I need it all of the time,
And you give it without question.
I just don't want to hurt you,
I don't want to hurt you anymore.
I've treated you badly...
And I'm sorry...
I haven't been able to help you...
And I'm sorry...
You've needed me but I haven't been there...
And I'm sorry...

If you can find the strength,
Or the patience,
To help me again.
To help me make things right,
To help me stop these things that hurt you for good,
To help me know what to do, what to say.
If you can do that,
I promise you,
That I will be the best girlfriend,
The one that you deserve.

I love you.
