Eileen Manassian Poet Free verse

Without Reservation

I love you….without reservation
I love you with the fullness of my being….
Heart, soul, mind, body…
I love you without retreat
I love you in full surrender
I love you….without reservation
No IF clauses…
No BECAUSE clauses…
I LOVE YOU...
Without reservation

There is nothing in your power
Nothing that you could possibly do
To make me love you less
To make me want you less
To make me desire you less
To make me want to please you less
To make me adore you less
Nothing….

My love is not conditional
My love is not subject to change
My love is not limited to time
My love is not limited to space
My love is not containable
My love is not in small supply
My love is not subject to defeat
My love is not tainted
 
I know…
Without the shadow of a doubt
I KNOW
That it is MY love
That will see you through…
Through every nightmare and defeat
Through every broken dream 
And through every real and imagined fear
Through every betrayal and heartache
When you give your love away to 
Someone undeserving
Yes, even then…
It is MY love
That will see you through every moment of
Every day 
Every season
Every year
It will carry you through
To eternity beyond
My love…..I gift to you
WITHOUT RESERVATION!

Richard D Seal March 22, 2013 at 7:54 PM I remember making these vows forty years ago, still in force today. Can't make a joke on this one Eileen, hope your not going all serious on me. Least not all the time. Take care, Regards Richard Eileen Manassian May 31, 2014 at 2:30 PM Forty years is a long time, Mr Seal. A lifetime...indeed.

Richard Lamoureux March 19, 2013 at 8:33 PM It sounds like you have described God's love for us. Sometimes I wonder if us humans have the capacity to love in this way. Beautiful poem Eileen Manassian March 20, 2013 at 7:52 AM I was going to give I Corinthians 13 as a reference, but I was describing my love. I love too much. I sometimes need to pull back and just love within limits....it ensures not getting hurt! :)
