i can see the pain my words do cause
and next time i promise to pause
before i say some stupid thing
i feel alone at times my love

i cant promise there will be no more fears
i dont want to hurt you baby for i hold you dear
things in my life seem to fall apart
but my love for you shall never faulter

i try and make other people be glad
and make them realize that life is not all bad
i sacrifice my feelings to make you better
i take on your pain and make it mine to

somethings in this world cant be done
like reaching up and grabing the sun
i try and make the world a better place
but i cant, i am only one man

i try  and say that is no excuse
but i know that i just need to stop my abuse
the pain i feel inside my heart
makes me want to cry and break down

i know your there always with me
my beautifl love i need you baby
and with this last line i shall go
just remember all that i know

i am what i am and that is all that i am and all that i shall ever be......so deal with it

Good job on this one, Ben... however I thought that you ended too many lines on unstressed syllables.  This harmed the flow a bit.     Keep an eye out for this kind of thing.

I liked this.. Although, Allan's right.. again  
The flow was interrupted becuase of the syllable count.  You might want to go back and look at that.
I enjoyed this, though.  
Nice work.
