Love That Became Forever

Love me once, love me twice,
Love me once again.
There were times I wasn't nice
But you loved me once again

T'was through your love 
I learned to love,
A compassion and caring 
That came from above.

Not a love that was deserved.
That could never be.
And yet you reserved
Your heart for me.

Missteps and straying
About the way,
Lies and deceptions,
Still led to the day

When my love for you
Was all there was
Because
That's what loved once, twice, does.

Through all the times 
I thought I was clever, you refusing me never
As learning to love from you and above
You became my adoration forever.
