The Poem In Your Heart

I wish to be the sunshine that brightens your day; 
I wish to be the moonlight in your sweet dreams; 
I wish to be joy and keep you away from frowns; 
I wish to be the smile that saves your beauty. 

I wish to be the fulfillment to lift you up to destiny; 
I wish to be your goals so you can achieve all; 
I wish to be your mind so you can think no problems; 
I wish to be your world and let you own me. 

I wish to be your blood that strengthens your muscles; 
I wish to be the beacon that safeguards your way; 
I wish to be the heartbeat that keeps you alive; 
I wish to be the nourishment you need to survive. 

I wish to be the voice that talks on your behalf; 
I wish to be your arms to hand everything you need; 
I wish to be your hero to protect you day and night; 
I wish to be your dreams come true. 

I wish to be the tissue that dries your tears; 
I wish to be the lips that caress your skin; 
I wish to be the veins singing in streams on your body; 
I wish to be the wonder that shines within. 

I wish to be the pillow that cushions your head; 
I wish to be the mattress that softens your bed; 
I wish to be the touch that strokes your desire; 
I wish to be the flame that ignites your fire. 

I wish to be the passion that melts you dear; 
I wish to be the loyalty that sets you apart. 
I wish to be darling and keep you happier forever; 
I wish to be the love that will always remain. 

I wish to be the treasure that makes you fly; 
I wish to be everything you need, want and desire; 
I wish to be the portion that makes you whole; 
I wish to be the poem in your heart.

Please, Forgive Me

Forgive me for all my past mistakes
That wounded deeply inside your heart;
Wishing I could re-clock the mists
Of ages to paint them afresh; 
Yet the now can’t walk me back, 
But ahead, learning from my darkest eras.
Forgive me for each pain I pasted in your soul,
And the loneliness you felt within.
Forgive me for loosing control,
For a moment I became a stranger to you,
Although cracks stretched us apart,
With no healing to entertain pains I feel,
Yet hard to accept we are no more together. 
Forgive me for the way things were,
And the selfishness that you endured.
Forgive me for coursing a rainy weather
That cried your season with gentle havoc;
Punching your joy in massive fists
That left bruises and gashes in our union.
Forgive me for the heart I broke,
That shattered with harshly words I uttered.
Forgive me for the love you missed,
If I could, I’ll pay it back in full to you.
Forgive me for I wasn't the man you deserved,
Flood our yesterday in pieces of molecules,
For non will kiss us with ugliness again,
Yet I’m ready to repent and love
Like I’ve never been hurt before. 
Forgive me for the way I quitted our relationship,
I've never felt so much regret in my life,
But with you I’ll be able to be gentle again;
So baby, please, forgive me.
