Will You Love Me? Will you love me When I'm so vulnerable To your touch And loving words.. Will you breathe new life Into a soul that has Searched endlessly For just ONE good man.. Will you be understanding When my moods change And my doubtful mind is Surrounded in darkness.. Will you love me unconditionally Allowing me my glaring shortcomings That tend to rule my mind With all the wrong words.. Will you accept my imperfect body Knowing it is not the whole of me. Will you tell me it's inner beauty You seek and nothing more.. Will you make me smile When the inner child in me Needs a good laugh And positive strokes.. Will you hold my hand Telling me life is good And you'll make it better Just one day at a time.. Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. T S Eliot |

A very heartfelt poem Kate, and I am sure if "he" is there, "he" will be all that and more for your kind, loving heart. Pssst....when you find him, ask if he has a brother! A lovely poem. ~*~A poet is someone who reads more than they write ~*~ |

This is so tender and openly searching.....marvelous writing!.....I'm looking for someone that will ....... "Will you accept my imperfect body Knowing it is not the whole of me. Will you tell me it's inner beauty You seek and nothing more.." I'd have it made then! I wouldn't have to lose 25 lbs. I'm just acting silly here ...I really enjoyed the poem so very much! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |
