I only thought I was doing the right thing by you
perhaps I overfilled you with love
and ended up hurting you instead.
For that I'm sorry
and punishment is mine,
as I carry this burden,
a multitude of words, thoughts and promises
thatleads you to my sins.
My love was not enough
and as I stare into the darkness
all I see is my fate
the truth
that I can never put things right,
and that guilt is here to stay.

so interesting. another different style. But a good poem and it has profound meaning here.

In every relationship(love, and friendship), one really shall think and rethink that the feeling is true or not. One can never lie to oneself. one shall move on without quilt because one did not lie.

fine, very 'real', emotive write!

[a slice of that 'everyperson-life dejavu'...
  I believe we ALL feel like what this poem
  expresses (perhaps all-too-often) in our
  lives...particularly with respect to the
  following]:

   "the truth
    that I can never put things right,
    and that guilt is here to stay."

serious applause!!
