I believe that none could love you
quite as deeply as I do;
And yet i often fail to show
the depth of it to you.
I vow to do the little things,
to show you everyday;
but one thing or another
seems to get in the way.
I pledge to be more open,
to have courage and be strong
But somehow fear takes over
and then everything goes wrong.
I dream of perfect love for us,
and hope that it will be;
and yet I end up giving you
a less than perfect me.
I want to be much more for you,
be everything you need.
I hope and seek,beg and pray
"Change me Lord!" I plead.
You are the only one I want.
It is for you I yearn.
I can not give perfection,
But this I promise I will do-
I will spend my life time learning
how to give my love to you.
A Promise to My Love
I don't usually like rating poetry as it is so subjective, but you have managed to convey some quite complex emotions in a way that is simple for the reader to relate to.
Good job!
