A Promise to My Love

I believe that none could love you
quite as deeply as I do
And yet I often fail to show
the depth of it to you.
I vow to do the little things,
to show you every day
But one thing or another
seems to get into the way.
I pledge to be more open,
to have courage and be strong
But some how fear takes over
and then everything goes wrong.
I dream of perfect love for us,
and hope that it will be
And yet I end up giving you
a less than perfect me.
I want to be much more for you,
be everything you need.
I hope and seek, beg and pray
Change me Lord I plead.
You are the only one I want.
It is for you I yearn.
I guess, my love, there’s still so much
that I have yet to learn.
I cannot give perfection,
but this I promise I will do
I will spend my life time learning
how to give my love to you.
