I wrote this poem for my boyfriend. He has always been there for me even after all the times I decided that I wanted to date other people. After awhile, I finally realized what I had lost: a great, loving, and kind person.
When I asked him to take me back, he found it in his heart to forgive me and take me back. He is every special to me.
You have always been there
When I needed someone,
When I needed a friend.
When I made a mistake,
You always let it slide,
As if you didn't take notice of it.
Every time I went astray,
You were always there,
Waiting for me,
Knowing,
Just somehow knowing,
I would come back to you
Once more.
I don't know how I can thank you
Or love you enough
For all you've done for me,
For all the love you've given me,
While expecting nothing in return.
Your patience with me has been so great,
Probably greater than
It ever should have been.
But am I ever glad,
Ever so glad,
Because even though it took me so long
To realize that you are
My only one.
There's nothing I'd much rather do than
Share my life with you.

It's a pretty good poem, makes me slightly jealous because my ex 'loved' me and he has a gf right now but still admits he wants to be with me.
