Sorry Poems For Him

Apology and Forgive Me Poems

To forgive is divine. It is a trait that we learn from our creator. He has shown us that is possible to repent from our sins and that we can forgive others as well. Forgiveness is more than saying the words, "I forgive you". If you still harbor hatred in your heart this is not true forgiveness. In order to truly forgive you must put myself in the other person's place. You must try to understand how they could do such a thing to you. When you understand what has led them to that act, you may be able truly forgive them.

After being married for 29 years, my husband suddenly left me for another woman. Over the course of the next 8 months, we had the saddest time of our lives. My husband is now back with me and realizes we cannot live without each other. Both of us have had a ''shock'' in our lives at what we could have lost for all eternity. This poem is about how I feel about our love. We have been together since I was 15. We are very much in love, but there is still hurt and fear there.

I look into your eyes
And imprint your gaze in my memory
Not knowing if it will be the last time
You hold me so close

I breathe in your smell
And taste your skin
I turn and close my eyes
Quietly sighing a thousand sighs inside

I feel such promise when you hold me
I feel safety in your arms
I never want to leave here
But sleep a thousand sleeps

Now knowing what I lost
Makes the losing so much harder
When eventually we part
I will grieve for eternity

The second I leave you
I ache for you inside
When I see you again
My heart knows comfort

I know a love
That cannot be restrained
Unconditional and fathomless
An ocean of tears we have cried

I will never stop loving you
Never, never, never
It is all I know how to do
To love the us, the me and you

Find the best sad love poems here. Read our love hurts, sorry and breakup love poems. Melancholy love poetry can describe the pain and pleasure of love, as this lost love poem does.

If I'd Never Met You

If I'd never met you,
I wouldn't feel the pain
Of losing your sweet love;
I wouldn't feel insane.

But if I'd never met you,
I wouldn't know the pleasure
Of ecstasy's warm gifts
And memories to treasure.

Now moving on with life,
I force a wistful grin,
Questioning what went wrong,
Wondering what might have been.

By Joanna Fuchs

There is surprising demand for "love hurts" poems and breakup love poems, such as this broken heart poem.

Farewell My Love

Is it really true our love is over now?
Can it be time for us to say goodbye?
Too soon, it's much too soon, my love, for me;
You smile with ease, but I can only sigh.

We've shared our lives and given so much love;
I can't believe we're really going to part;
You're moving toward a new life without me;
I'm left with scars upon my broken heart.

Go on now, if you must; I'll get along;
How much it hurts, I don't want you to know.
I'll set you free without inducing guilt,
But as you leave, the silent tears will flow.

I can't be mad; I love you way too much;
I'll hide my sadness now, so you can't tell.
Sweet happiness is what I wish for you;
Farewell my love, I hope that you fare well.

Sad love poems express feelings of loss. This lost love poem could apply after a divorce or breakup or even a death.

You Were My Everything

You were my everything;
Now you're gone.
I don't have the strength
To carry on.

Skies always seemed sunny
When you were here;
Now there's nothing but gloom
In my atmosphere.

I loved you so much;
You were all I had;
Now my whole world
Is depressing and sad.

I'd like to start feeling
Other than blue,
But you were my everything,

By Joanna Fuchs

Is this sad state what lost love feels like?

Sad love poetry can describe what's going on in a relationship, as this sad love poem does.

Is This What Love Is?

Is this all we have together?
Is this what love really is,
Yelling through a quarrel
And making up with a kiss?

Why can't we get along?
Why do we have to fight?
We starve true love by day
And feed lust all through the night.

I wish we'd settle down;
I wonder where peace went.
Why do we pick at each other;
Why can't we be content?

If this is what love is,
If tenderness has flown,
I'm thinking more and more,
It's better to be alone.

By Joanna Fuchs

What do you do after a loved one is gone? This sad love poem addresses that question.

Be A Memory

My life is different now.
I like it; some of it.
Much more time, lots of freedom,
but you
keep wandering into my thoughts.
I feel a pang, a little stab of pain,
when I think of the good times,
even the  not-so-good times.
I really want to own this new life.
Could you just be a memory?
Please?

Sad love poetry can describe an ongoing, unsatisfactory relationship, as this short sad love poem does.

Is It Enough?

When we converse, it's just surface stuff;
We say some words, but is it enough?
We get along; we rarely fight,
But where is the spark, the joy, the delight?

We're settled into the same routine;
Sometimes I'd like to flee this scene.
Everything's easy; we don't have it rough,
But sometimes I wonder: Is it enough?

In A Daze

I walk around in a daze...
my hollowed out interior
filled with smoky gloom,
choking off all joy.
Just as life begins to clear,
I gasp aloud at the realization,
you're not here;
you never will be again.
I wilt like a waterlily
in the desert.
I walk around in a daze...

More Sad Love Poems

Unrequited love poems are among the saddest of sad love poems, as this one is.

If Raindrops Were Tears

If raindrops were tears
And it rained every day,
The rain couldn't wash
My heartache away.

You're still my ideal;
My love never dies,
But it cuts to the bone--
What I see in your eyes.

You want me to stop;
You want to be friends,
But you'll be my true love
Until breath and life ends.

By Joanna Fuchs

Sad love poetry can express feelings of pain and insanity, as this sad love poem does.

Now That You're Gone

Now that you're gone, I realize
How much you meant to me.
My loss is wide as a starless night sky,
And deep as a stormy sea.

I miss the comfort of your sweet love,
Your absolute devotion;
Now I'm a fountain of endless tears,
A pool of sad emotion.

They tell me I should move on with life,
That time will heal my pain;
I smile and nod and agree with them,
While I slowly go insane.

By Joanna Fuchs

My best sad love poem is this lost love poem. It's kind of an apology, so I guess it could be considered a sorry love poem.

If Only

If only I had done the things
That keep true love alive,
I wouldn't have to acknowledge now
That our love cannot survive.

If only I had described to you
The joy you brought to me,
Instead of bringing you complaints,
You wouldn't have set me free.

If I had touched you, kissed you, Love,
If I had loved you stronger,
If I had appreciated you,
We would have lasted longer.

If I had often said to you,
"It's you whom I adore,"
Perhaps you'd still be with me now,
If I had told you more.

If only I had treated you
As if we were best friends,
I wouldn't be alone in grief,
As our faded love finally ends.

If only I didn't have to say,
"If only, my love, if only,"
I wouldn't be all by myself
So sorry, sad and lonely.

By Joanna Fuchs

This is a sad love poem to which many disappointed lovers can relate.

Time to Say Goodbye

My heart is breaking in me;
It's still you whom I adore;
My tears are overflowing:
You don't love me anymore.

I sleepwalk through each day;
I pray to heaven above,
Hoping you'll change your mind,
But I know I've lost your love.

I wish that things were different;
I wish it were the way it was,
But reality has no pity;
It just happens the way it does.

Will I ever feel any better,
With days when I don't cry?
No matter what, it's time to say
Goodbye, my love, goodbye.

By Joanna Fuchs

Nothing Left to Lose

I don't know what to do
To get me back to you.
I've got nothing left to lose;
I'm sadness, tears and blues.

All bridges have been crossed;
I guess our love is lost.

By Joanna Fuchs

Lots of people are searching for a prayer for love, and I think it belongs on the sad love poems page. Here it is.

A Prayer for Love

I'm praying to you, dear Lord above
For my heart's profound wish, a perfect love.
I pray You'll give me one who cares,
Who understands me, who always shares,
The answer to my fondest dream,
The two of us, a perfect team.
Lord, when each new day is through,
I pray we'll turn our hearts to You.

I apologize with all my heart
Let me begin a new day
With a fresh new start

Been keeping in touch
I am sorry for making
You feel so low and down
I am sorry for putting
On your face, an ugly frown
3) To my charms
You will have to succumb
From my magic

From my allure
You simply cannot escape
At my beauty
You cannot cease to gape
Being cross with me
Is not going to work out
I will turn you around
I know without a doubt

I am ready to say sorry
Do anything that you please
To make you smile wide
As if you were saying cheese

To reverse what I have done
For I want that guy back
Who used to laugh and have fun

Fights and arguments happen
Because of differences in opinion
Quarrels and squabbles take place
But this can be just a phase
Verbal battles too ensue
Couples devoid of it are few
But this is a part of the game

Sorry for the hurt
That I have given you
My apologies are now
Highly overdue
Sorry for the pain
That I have caused
I am the reason
Our lives have paused
I surrender to you
Punish me all you want
Hurt me back if you please
Or throw me a nasty taunt
Do anything as long as
It makes you forgive me

A more meaningful apology
7) I have many times said sorry
I have sent you a lovely apology

Please reply from wherever you are
Light up my life like a shining star
Until then I will pray with all my might
For everything between us to become alright
8) I have been stupid
Not to mention silly
For hiding the truth
I am so sorry
I exceeded my limits
I pushed the boundary
For lying to you
This is my apology
9) For all my silliness
I am to blame

I could be so lame
For all my mistakes
I am responsible
I should have been
More dependable
Hurt you like this
Let me make it up
With a hug and a kiss
10) Sorry for being in denial
Sorry for being defiant
Sorry for being so rigid
Sorry being so adamant
Sorry for being so difficult
Sorry for being so severe
To apologize to you
Darling, I am here

I can see on your face
A streak of pain
I can see how I am
Driving you insane
I can see how tears
Have left so many stains
I promise to never
Hurt you again
Not a shard of remorse
Will ever remain
I know my apology
Will not be in vain

Please stop being so angry
On me, stop showering your fury
Please quit being so cross
My life has gone for a total toss
Please refrain from misunderstanding
Our lives, it is further complicating

I want to apologize to you
In every way possible
I want to make it up to you
On the double
I want to see you happy
As soon as I can
Giving you hugs and kisses
Is the first step of my plan
I am sorry
14) I know I have
Been loud and cranky
Which is the reason

I know I did
Behave stupidly
But I still want you
To hug me lovingly
I know I will
Stop you from being angry
After all I am
Your sweetie
15) Dull, gloomy and sad
My life right is quite bad
Boring, desolate and dark
My life has lost all spark
Miserable, lost and lonely
This is what remains of me
My only way to redemption
Is to beg for your pardon
I am sorry
Is not enough
What I did
Was really rough

This more tough
17) I am not saying sorry
Just for its sake
To make you happy again
All efforts I will make
My apology is genuine

No matter how long it takes
18) I am sorry I lied
For that, I have cried
I have behaved badly

I accept have been rash
My actions have been brash
There is something I want to do
Ask for forgiveness from you
19) I can never think of
Cheating behind your back
Of flirting with other boys
I do not have the knack
I can never think of
Doing things to make us fight
I promise that I will
Set everything right

My love and my loyalty
I am sorry
20) I was in a bad mood
Please, just let it go

But you became the target
My immature behavior
I hope you forgive and forget

Until you tell me that it is okay
I will suffer every single day
Until you tell me that it is alright

Until you decide to forgive me
I will forever keep saying sorry
I am sorry
22) I want you to know
That I am ashamed
For what has happened
I am to be blamed
I want you to know
That my silly white lie
Has been a terrible mistake
It has made me cry
Wipe out this incident
From your memory
I want your forgiveness
I am really very sorry
23) I had forgiven you earlier
Now it is your turn
Let go of what I did

I stepped in your shoes
When I had to understand you
Now you need to step into mine
Please understand me too

I am crazy about you
Because you are so cool
For lying to you that day
I was a complete fool
Since I have shown you
So much flattery
I hope that you accept
My cute little apology

I wonder what will make you laugh
I wonder what will make you smile
I have been trying to make it up
To you for quite a while
I wonder what I can attempt
I wonder what I can do
To make you forgive
And bring back the original you

Think the way you do
Please treat this as
A difference in opinion
For drifting us apart
Let this not be a reason
27) I will be your assistant
I will act as per your wishes
I will do as you say
And shower you with kisses
I will do everything it takes
To make you happy

Please forgive me
28) To make up for my mistake
That has hurt your heart
I want to refresh
And give myself a restart
Please give me forgiveness
For my stupidity

I am really sorry
29) I never meant to
My silly insecurities
Made me weak and frail
I never intended to
But my jealousy
Forced me to take a look
I so sorry for being
Acting like such a kid
I can understand why
You are so livid
30)Today I will make use of
A promise you once gave me
You said I could ask for anything
Whatever it may be
I am asking for your forgiveness
Along with hugs and kisses
I hope you will keep your word
And fulfill these wishes
I am sorry

I’m Sorry Poems for My Wife

I Am Sorry
I am sorry my beautiful wife,
I’m sorry for doubting you,
I’m sorry for arguing my point,
I’m sorry for being stubborn and
I’m sorry for not apologizing sooner.
I’m sorry for raising my voice,
I’m sorry for hurting your feelings,
My love for you supersedes everything.
Please forgive me so we can move forward, I’m sorry and I love you.

The Apology

By Ralph Waldo Emerson
Think me not unkind and rude,
That I walk alone in grove and glen;
I go to the god of the wood
To fetch his word to men.
Tax not my sloth that I
Fold my arms beside the brook;
Each cloud that floated in the sky
Writes a letter in my book.
Chide me not, laborious band,
For the idle flowers I brought;
Every aster in my hand
Goes home loaded with a thought.
There was never mystery,
But ’tis figured in the flowers,
Was never secret history,
But birds tell it in the bowers.
One harvest from thy field
Homeward brought the oxen strong;
A second crop thine acres yield,
Which I gather in a song.

I’m Sorry Poems for Him or Her

Proof of Love
I know you’re still hurting,
I know I messed up,
I know we still miss each other,
I know we still love each other,
I know we want to be together,
I know we want to pursue our dreams, together,
Please give me another chance,
Let me prove to you how sorry I am,
Let me prove I can be the man/woman you deserve,
Please don’t give up on me, on us,
I will love you more than any man/woman ever would,
I miss you and I love you,
My life is not the same without you,
My heart is not the same without you,
Please forgive me.

I’m Sorry

By Ella Wheeler Wilcox
There is much in life that makes me sorry as I journey
down life’s way.
And I seem to see more pathos in poor human
Lives each day.
I’m sorry for the strong brave men, who shield
the weak from harm,
But who, in their own troubled hours find no
Protecting arm.

I’m sorry for the victors who have reached
success, to stand
As targets for the arrows shot by envious failure’s
hand.
I’m sorry for the generous hearts who freely
shared their wine,
But drink alone the gall of tears in fortune’s
drear decline.

I’m sorry for the souls who build their own fame’s
funeral pyre,
Derided by the scornful throng like ice deriding
fire.
I’m sorry for the conquering ones tho know not
sin’s defeat,
But daily tread down fierce desire ‘neath scorched
and bleeding feet.

I’m sorry for the anguished hearts that break with
passions strain,
But I’m sorrier for the poor starved souls that
Never knew love’s pain.
Who hunger on through barren years not tasting
joys they crave,
For sadder far is such a lot than weeping o’er a
grave.

I’m sorry for the souls that come unwelcomed
into birth,
I’m sorry for the unloved old who cumber up the
earth.
I’m sorry for the suffering poor in life’s great
maelstrom hurled,
In truth I’m sorry for them all who make this
aching world.

But underneath whate’er seems sad and is not
understood,
I know there lies hid from our sight a mighty
germ of good.
And this belief stands firm by me, my sermon,
motto, text –
The sorriest things in this life will seem grandest
in the next.

I’m sorry Poems for Wife or Husband

By Chelsea Carroll
I know I’m not easy to love,
I’m a chronic over-thinker,
I overreact more than I should…
And every once in a while,
I might be a little insecure.
But if I am in love with you,
I can promise you wholeheartedly
That you will be loved with so much passion and intensity
That you’ll forget what life felt like before I came along.
You will always be cared for
And you will always have someone in your corner.
Maybe I’m not the best at being loved-
But I like to think I’m pretty good at loving.

By George Elliot
I just feel so much guilt,
That my words and actions built.
I know, what I did was wrong,
Tried to avoid it, and be strong.

Following me has been the truth,
It was hurting like a tooth.
A second more, I could not deny,
Not apologizing was a lie.

I’m so sorry, from deep inside,
Clearly guilty, my hands are tied.
It was obviously, all my fault,
I have opened my inner vault.

To be one with each other
What greater thing is there for two human souls
than to feel that they are joined together to strengthen
each other in all labor, to minister to each other in all sorrow,
to share with each other in all gladness,
to be one with each other in the
silent unspoken memories?

I’m Sorry Love Poems

My Promise
I’m sorry….
For anytime I hurt you,

I’m sorry…
For every reason you’re angry with me,

I’m sorry….
For every time I raised my voice,

I’m sorry…..
For not ignoring your voice,

I’m sorry…….
For anytime you felt like I didn’t care,

I promise to try and be better in the future,
I want a future with you, I need a future with you,
My future is nothing without you in it.
I’m sorry and I love you.

How Do I Love Thee?

By Elizabeth Barrett Browning
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.

I love thee to the level of everyday’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.

I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints,–I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!–and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

Spread the love 🙂
