Alexis Y. Poet Rhyme

I Got Your Back

If I made you feel sad or mad yesterday, 
I apologize for making you feel that way.

Because that was not my intention at all,
We both made mistakes, our downfall.

But today, I'm a little older and wiser,
I would embrace being a compromiser.

I know the harm cruel words can cause; 
sometimes, we need to regroup and pause.

I aim to build you up, not tear you down,
Make you smile; take away that big frown.

With that being said, I may fall short
because I'm not perfect; I have a wart.

Whatever the case, know I adore you,
I have your best interest at heart too;

When you are down and feeling blue,
I will always root for you in all you do.
