All That I Am

I love him with all that I am ...
Beyond the noise and hype of this world
Beyond the ebb and flow of ocean tides
Beyond all the hurt and pain we have borne
Beyond the dereliction and abuse
Beyond the bias and disrespect
Beyond the abandonment 
The disparagement, the scorn
I honor him, his beautiful spirit, and his heart
And ‘though tomorrow is not promised to him and me
As far as my heart does know, 
I will love him to infinity

There are never any promises of tomorrows, so it's good that you were able to express your affection today. In spite of any hardships you face, your love endures. Marvelous! Great poetry, Audrey! Love, Carolyn

Beautiful write in this one. I could go several different ways in the interpertation. Sounds mostly though a poem about unconditional love or Agape love. Sara
