The meaning of the word love

by Ingrid   Jul 7, 2007


A poem for my sweetheart

What do I mean when I say that I love you?
I will try to put it into words:

I wish for the sun to always shine upon you
I hope that God may always guide you and keep you from harm
I want to always be there to cheer for you when you succeed
I want to always be there for you when you fail and comfort you
I want your every fantasy to come to life and help you fulfill them
I want you to always be happy even if it's not with me
I hope you will always trust me to be good to you as you are to me
I hope you will never be envious at others for receiving a little part of what you get most of: my love
I will look for you first when I die and go to heaven and hope to continue our love after death
I would gladly give my life if it meant saving yours
There is nothing in this world that would make me leave you unless you were to ask me yourself
I will always encourage you to give to others what you so willingly give to me: your love
I trust you with every fiber of my being

This is what loving you means to me!

    Oh, Ingrid... I have read this write more than once and it still makes me smile. Love is a funny thing, sometimes, though. I've only experienced it once.. but I didn't hold on because I was refusing to believe it was the real thing, so I lost it. I know how it can be, though. Beautiful. :) Inspiring... sometimes, it can seem unreal, but it is.

    I love this write, Ingrid. I hope many more understand the beauty of it.. most don't, because they've never experienced it, but even the hardest of hearts can feel it... can open up.

    Take care! 5/5
