Poem: I love you enough

I wrote this poem to a special friend of mine... I haven't sent it to her but I'm going to share it with you guys. It started out while i was reading this book and organizing it into poem form. Check it out. I really hope she likes it.:smile:

I love you enough to want to see you.
I love you enough to give you a place to stay.
I love you enough to help you break into a new place.
I love you enough to teach you where to go and how to get around.
I love you enough to show you the good and bad side of me with the trust that you won’t deceive me.
I love you enough to take the time to get to know you inside and out.
I love you enough to feel safe and secure with you.
I love you enough to say what I honestly think and feel.
I love you enough to sit down, shut up and listen to you attentively.
I love you enough to laugh at your jokes.
I love you enough to explain mine.
I love you enough to keep a secret.
I love you enough to tell you all of mine.
I love you enough to hold you tight in my arms.
I love you enough to trust you with my body.
I love you enough to make your eyes roll back with ecstasy.
I love you enough to give you the time of your life
I love you enough to tell you you’re beautiful even when you think you’re not.
I love you enough to always want you to have a smile on your face.
I love you enough to be there for you 24/7 no questions asked.
I love you enough to do things for you out of the pure goodness of my heart.
I love you enough to only expect two things from you in return.
I love you enough to be real with you.
I love you enough to be very tolerant with you.
I love you enough to always be mindful and try to say the right things.
I love you enough to admit my faults.
I love you enough to be polite and courteous and be a gentleman towards you.
I love you enough to accept you for who you are.
I love you enough to not care about what others think of me and you.
I love you enough to comfort you when you need comfort and be a shoulder to lean on.
I love you enough to never let you down.
I love you enough to never make you cry.
I love you enough to respect you as a person.
I love you enough to appreciate you as a human being.
I love you enough to treat you the way you deserve to be treated.
I love you enough to put our friendship first.
I love you enough to say I love you and mean it deep down.
I love you enough to mean every word that I say.
I love you enough... Do I need to prove it anymore?

I love you unconditionally..... I will care for you always….

It is a sweet sentiment and I think she will like it but it is not a poem in the classical sense. I don't know if you care about such things but here is an example of a great modern love poem by E.E. Cummings:

somewhere i have never travelled,gladly beyond
any experience,your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near

your slightest look easily will unclose me
though i have closed myself as fingers,
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skilfully,mysteriously) her first rose

or if your wish be to clost me,i and
my life will shut very beautifully,suddenly,
as when the heart of this flower imagines
the show carefully everywhere decending,

nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility:whos texture
compels me with the color of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing

(i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens, only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody,not even the rain,has such small hands
