Looking in the mirror,
Can’t tell what she sees in me
Though I try to understand,
I still find it hard to believe
That she lays down her trust,
And opens up her heart for me
Though I know not why
I have in my life someone so sweet

I’ll never lose my imperfections,
I might even gain a few
But, because she loves me,
I’ll love her that way too
And I, with all my imperfections,
Of body, mind and soul
Still receive a forgiving love
That will be there when I grow old

I want to see as she does
To feel as she does,
To find out why she loves me,
Loves me just because

PK~ you shouldn't question love when it is given to you....it's a rare and precious thing to be given unconditional love

I thank God every day for my husband's love, and try not to wonder why he does....I'm just happy he does!

I liked this very much

PK...No one is perfect, least of all ourselves...love is the best, when it loves no matter what.

Ah.. the imperferct us... loved.. how does one not question the why and the how... but hopefully..we also can see in ourselves the things which are good or attractive...and feel secure enough to accept the kind of love you seem to have..

I enjoyed

Im seeing a whole lot of perfection

perfect cadence and rhyme
perfect poetic intend
perfect poetry from you pen
( biased? me?) LOL

if we are fortunate, sometimes we can see ourselves thru the eyes of those who love us...
hopefully we can learn to enjoy the view
(same goes for seeing our poetry thru anothers eyes) *S*

This is how it should be and you found it.
