Dearest....

Why do you love this man?
I ask these words, wondering...
Am I not just that, just a man?
Or, am I to you, something else?

I gave you my heart, you cherished it.
My soul, you made it your own.
My eyes, you looked into their depths.
My life,   you changed it.

How can I ever doubt you?
Ever feel a pang of jealousy?
Ever be insecure of us?
Feel anxiety, feel fear.

Why, if I do love you, do I?
Why do I sometimes wonder?
Is it wrong to feel these feelings?
Am I wrong?

The depths of space is shallow.
My heart’s love ever so deep.
The end of time is felt near
Our love.....eternal

Love me unconditionally, freely.
Give to me only yourself, your heart.
I will guard, cherish and comfort you.
You my dear, are just like me.

There is no one like us........

It just doesn't get any better than this does it, Barry?

In questioning love, we come to understand it. Beautifully said sir.

Wynter....I may never be the complete man
of my words....but I am trying to be one
that is loved and respected...And I am
trying to give her the same.  Is not always
an easy thing to do...we both are human
and walk an occasional bumpy road.

Someone told me once that Romance can be had, passion can be felt....but LOVE must be earned.

If your words are any reflection of the kind of man that you are,,,then you are treasure to behold.

Till next time...
