I am not perfect, nor do I pretend to be.
I am not easy, and I never will be.
I have done things that were hurtful, shameful and regretful and that is my cross to bare.
Never have I meant to hurt you, although I’m sure I have.
Never have I wanted to anger you, yet I’ve felt your ire rise.
Never have my transgressions been out of malice, regardless of what you think.
Forever do I promise to try to make you smile.
Forever will hold you in my heart and soul.
Forever will I love you.
These things I offer you as my solemn vow.
