Teach Me Forever Love
by Kate Demeree
Humbly
Immersed in your eyes
Drinking my fill
Of honest emotion
Shyly I come to you
Hungry for what
You offer
Sincerely to me
Words inadequate
To describe thoughts
Emotions
Kept bottled inside
Now
Wanting to burst forth
As fingers trail
Over gentle, firm lips
Across rugged jaw
To frame the face
Of the man I love
Foolish willful child was I
Holding onto thin air
Lies and masks
Deceptions and deceiver
When I could have
Held you
I have searched all my life for you
Until now
When you found me
Hold me Love
Now and through eternity
Will I Honor and cherish you
Gratefully
You have taught me Love
I understand
At last
What it means to
Love
Honor
Cherish
And Obey 01/04/2006 Author's Note: To God... With Grateful Thanks for all the angels he has brought into my life as teachers. With special thanks for his bringing Gary into my life.

| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 01/06/06 at 08:36 PM I want to know, how is it possible in view of these words not to be loved honored cherished and yes, even obeyed. I love to obey love when it is pure, but love gives no command to obey but to be true. |
