Sorry

Stubborn, pig-headed, obstinate
 just had to have my way, inconsiderate
wanting this, wanting that, only what I could bring
 trying to control everything;
made you bend to all my dreams
 poorly self-centered planned schemes,
you bent, reluctant but ever giving in
 my wants and needs, my selfishness forgiving;
not once did I think more of you than for myself
 putting all your needs upon the shelf 
late I saw the blessings in your self less love for me
 forgive me please, I'm so sorry.
