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 Though I know not why I have someone pretty, sweet and smart 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 |

JML, just being yourself is all any one can ask for! This is so sweet. Should be a Valentine's Day Card!  -SEA |

Great poem, JML - Women are incredible creatures for their capacity to love us despite the unbelievably rough edges. I will never cease to marvel at the gift God gave this world when He created Woman. |

That is a great poem. There is a girl that I am trying to get to look at me in the very same way. I wish she would. Who ever your girl is, give it to her. She will melt |

"you can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job."~Laurence J. Peter I think the same can be said for love, it looks beyond the little imerfections we all have. |
