If I could
I would wrap you in my arms
I would kiss away your pain
Love you through until the
Sun replaces the pelting rain
I would look into your eyes
And let you read my soul
So that you could be sure
I was not playing some role
I would let you read my mind
My only quest is for your best
In my heart you would  find
My only goal to see you whole
To know you will have, once more
Renewed verve for  horizons to soar


If I could
I would love you until you love you
Then I would recede and let you take
The lead, to whatever is your desire

To me, this is "true" love, Eileen. I particularly love the selflessness of the last stanza. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and peace to you,

Regis

Just keep on writing about this kind of Love
and maybe some selfish, unthinking soul
will finally see the light.
This is splendid, Eileen!

to the true definition of love does this ring true. For to give of ones all for the sake of love and to heal through its broken need, is to shine brightest amongst the stars of heaven…this you do by giving so free.

This is such a moving declaration of unconditional love, spirtual and I think earthly .......it could be applied to a romantic interest, or a child.........
written by a lovely heart

You should have titled this "Every Mother's Prayer" Eileen. What tender words you have penned for us all to share. This should be on the wall of every maternity ward and every classroom so that children will know that they are never alone and so that parents will understand their mission. Excellent offering!
Take care,
Sherry

I agree with Jerry below completly...
Some people's version of love is in fact a stifling and possessive form of control...
You show us the true meaning of Unconditional Love...

2 "if I could's" and 6 "I would's"

Seems you are much more willing to give than you are to be given too. It is better to give than receive I believe. The way I see it, if all were giving, than all would be receiving.

Eileen, you are infectiously creative and I always glean something from your constructs dear one.

Richard
P.S. I agree with Jerry too!

And that, my friend Eileen, is what is known as love without strings. There is not a whole lot of that going round these days.
