Poem
Do you love her? Do you love her? When all is weighed in the balance, Do you love her? As men, it’s easy to dive into The idea, the woman being subject to the man, Often forgetting that there is A need to love, and not just lead, when you hold her hand. Don’t be so hung up on Ephesians 5:22. You bring it out of context Because three verses down, The situation is made as simple as we make it complex. Love your wife with the love Of Christ and keep this memory to the touch. When asked how much He loved He opened His arms on the cross and said, “This much”. Do you love her? Created from our rib, To demonstrate she can support as well as protect Our weaknesses and Deepest emotions when life, like the tax man, comes to collect. Created from our rib, So, when you feel a stitch, you know it’s time to care. A gentle hold A little closer just so she knows you’re there. Do you love her? And is that love a love situational? Where you don’t really Give it all and keep it probational, That ‘almost’ love. Where you give all of most And most of all but never just all. That’s part-time effort, Wanting full-time pay, a.k.a. Pride before the fall. Do you love her? You see, love earns love. But it needs to occur between complete hearts Because those broken and reserved Can only give and receive from incomplete parts. Which leads her love To the point it is unsatisfied, unrequited And the fact you can’t understand her tears Is a reflection on you and your heart, divided. Do you love her? When you look into her eyes And say I love you, is your heart complete? Or is it that ‘almost’ love? Because ‘almost’ means she’s not within reach. Do you love her?
