Forgive Me?

I know loving me is never easy.
It takes a very special man. 
I am so so many things.
I am a mother and a sister
I am a daughter and friend.

I take everything to heart.
I know I am not beautiful.
At least not that I can see.
But when I love
I love unconditionally!
When I love I do so
With every fiber of my being.

Please know that when you 
Hurt than so do I.
It is double agony when
The one to cause your
Pain is me......

But when you feel joy
I do so as well.
I will tell you this
When you need someone 
In your corner you will see
No one will fight for you
Harder or more fierce than me!

I promise you that one
Day I will get this right.
No more agony and pain
No more clouds and rain.

I know some journeys we
Do take on our own.
I promise to try harder.
I just ask...Forgive me?
