{Internal and End Rhyme} It was all my fault... I almost ruined our lives with a foolish decision but in answer to my prayer you listened to my remorseful contrition, and still you wanted a life to share and then you... soothed my soul of its deepest gashes, rid me of the weight of guilt and despair gently lifted me from the pit of ashes and softly whispered, "I'll always be there." You healed me... from numbness - restored my feeling, in my dark chamber you gave me light your love was a source of healing. I promise you, this time I'll get it right. To me you are.... the laughter awakening my very soul - as the sun bestirs the day the innocent one, offering your hand to hold. This time I'll not pull mine away. When I hear... your voice it caresses my senses as the moon arouses the stars each night you say, "I love you." you give me wings to soar a great height. You forgave me... that's not something I deserve, yet you offered it without hesitation I'll hold back nothing in reserve, our marriage is worthy of salvation. I am sorry... It's my fault that we fell apart, but I'll take away your pain and sorrow erase the shadows I left on your heart and bring happiness with each tomorrow.
