A Lover's Payback

FIrst of all I just want to say thank you

You didn't have to wait for me... but you did and I'm grateful
You didn't have to stay single... but you did, so I'm faithful

You sacrificed the condition of your heart, to ensure the health of mine
Even though you had feelings for me, you knew you couldn't resign

Thank you for that first kiss, that made me realize
That my biggest source of happiness, resides within your eyes

You even gave to me your innocence, when I didn't deserve your trust
You showed me that sex can be, more than out of lust

And still today you keep me happy, your smile releaves my stress
The only one who cheers me up, with easily found success

So in return I give to you all that I possess
And even if you anger me, I'll love you nonetheless

When I think about the things you've done to bring our hearts togther
I think of ways to srtenghthen us, and make you smile forever

I'll love you till your hair turns grey, and we both have use for walkers
I live right now to cherish the day, you meet me at the alter

Your efforts have not been in vain, I promise you'll be reimbursed
With every single ounce of love, my heart will let me disperse

I know you feel I owe you not, and I guess I can agree
But still I feel the will to repay you, with love unconditionally

In a list

Please tell me what you think

    This is a beautifully heartfelt piece I really enjoyed the rhythm and the flow and the words are sweet... especially the last two lines in places the rhyme seems a little forced, but that is up to experience I think... wonderful

    Keep writing

    Wow, that's very very deep. This flows so easily and catches attention from the very first stanza. There's raw, heartfelt emotion let out in this, and it ends beautifully. Well done!

    I'm In Love

    This is a beautiful proclamation of love, true love. I love the way the words flow together, but don't sound forced. It's purely emotion, without the clouds of difficulty. You inspire love within the reader with your words. Thank you.

    "I know you feel I owe you not, and I guess I can agree
    But still I feel the will to repay you, with love unconditionally" Great job!

    Awww this is truly beautiful and really heartfelt. You both are lucky to have eachother, she to have a husband to love's her so and you to have a wife who's willing to stand by you. It's not often that you see a guy stand up and acknowledge the woman by his side or even admit that he has a wonderful woman in his life...so I applaud you sir and wish you all the best!

    Good Write

    I really enjoyed this. It seems very honest.
    I do have one suggestion. The line "You showed me that sex can be, more than out of lust" I'd change that to showed me that sex can be, more than just lust. I think that flows better. But overall, good write!

    Great rhyme and flow. I enjoyed the read very much. One thing, your alter, should be altar. Other than that, greata write.

    Love unconditionally is really a wonderful way to pay back someone. I think that's the best gift of all to give them

    This was a very interesting write to me. You captured a true, innocent account of two who will trust one another and be faithful, something not often seen in our times. There is a depth of emotion here that makes the words truly heartfelt. Other than two spelling errors, relieves, instead of releaves, and altar instead of alter, you wrote well. Spelling and grammar are very easy to fix, but the body of feeling is there. Nice job!!
