#251 – Eternity
Image via WikipediaI could love you
for an eternity
in the small
and the large
in our laughter
and sillyness
in our pain
and wishing things
were different
I could love you
for an eternity
in our shared faith
and hope for the future
in our doubts
and fear in the now
I could love you
for eternity
every time I see
your tender care
and hear your words of love
I could love you for eternity.

That is just so lovely. It could be a wedding vow.
I am not sure there is a comment big enough to say how heartfelt and loving that felt..Jae
Very well written…
A beautiful love poem. It brightened my day.
That is beautiful. 🙂
This is potentially a very beautiful poem. However I was concerned with the use of the conditional "could" rather than using "will". May I suggest, as mine appears to be first comment, to change it then scrub my comment? Or was it intentional?
A nice piece… an eternity of love ❤ Here's wishing you what your heart desires :)Stopping by from SS 🙂

I wish blogs had "like" buttons the way face book does. "Like"
Sorry Alice, I thought I'd already left a comment..you have crafted yet another warm and heartfelt tribute to the 'one' you love..very assured writing..Jae
Lovely poem 🙂 I always find writing about love difficult because sometimes there are just no words for the depth of emotion, but your writing says a lot! 🙂
I never thought about putting eternity into a love poem. It goes hand in hand, doesn't it? Loving someone like this is what everyone strives for but no one wants to work at and fight for. Well done.
I too could see this as a wedding vow.
appropriate as i wrote it for my husband – although we had an interesting conversation about "could" and "would" – interresting that it was a man – oldegg – who questioned it. R checked at "could" as well. I was once told you should always say "would you do this" to a man rather than "could you" interesting in this context dont you think?
