Poetic Verses
Twice More Than Me
You're twice the person, then and now
than I could ever be,
for all the times I let you down,
you always stood by me.
Even when I coldly turned my back
on God, my friends, and you,
I never really could ignore
the pain I put you through.
But in time I came to realize
the folly of my way,
which caused me to start asking where
my thinking went astray.
Oh, I could have played the victim
or blamed it on the moon,
but I alone did make of me
quite frankly, a buffoon.
And this, I daily live with
the burdens of my past,
but because of God and simply you
I'm whole again at last.
Yes, you're that person, then and now
twice more than I could be
the one who, though I let you down
did always stand by me.
