A Poem For Amends

So now it's my turn to admit you were right.
    Why do I always miss?
I don't think I'll ever understand what is right.
  So now it's my turn to admit I was wrong.
    I'm getting used to this.

I'm amazed that you can put up with, 
  all the faults that are mine.
I don't seem to be worthy,
  of a single minute of your time.

I always find a way to make it up to you.
Sometimes with a romantic verse or two.
  "I'm in love with just the thought of you.
  Your heart is my only home,
  The best I have ever known."
