My Apologies

I'd like to say that I'm sorry my love cause I haven't been giving my all lately and I understand why you hate me. I been so caught up with my ambitions and dreams that I pushed your needs behind when they should have been right next to mine. Am I asking you to forgive me for falling short on my duties? That would be the farthest from the truth and if you wanted to hold everything against me then I'll understand that to.

I still love you even though sometimes it doesn't seem like I do. I can't even explain how I feel when I cross over the threshold of our home and I see your beautiful face with all its grace asking questions about my day and helping me relax from a long day. I been a little detached lately with all the things I've let bombard my mind even when I'm with you. I can't apologize enough because I can't even imagine the emotional distress I've put you through.

For it to take a turn like this was very unexpected. To tell you that I did it all for you would be the farthest thing from the truth. I know I still need you beside me but my ego tends to override my better judgment and tells me there is no one else in this world that lives with my troubles but me. I still love and cherish you and when I'm far from home I reminisce about the day I proposed to you. My apologies for the turmoil I've put you through and I pray that once again I get lost in your eyes and end up where I belong which is right next to you.
