Whether wantonly so
or with spontaneity,
I will never freely
leave you behind.
I would never renounce
or relinquish my claim
to your love.
I give myself to you
without restraints.
You are my other half.

Abandonment of the heart and soul is a remarkable thing. Such a true gift of unconditional love. Your sentiments shine here. Lovely job of it but I do feel the last line took some power out of the piece. Hmm, maybe a rewording? I don't know but it seemed the strength plummented there. Either way it is a really good piece.

Very beautiful and simple.
Realy lovely.
Good luck in the contest!
-
Very deep.
Written as if it's a vow.
I like how it's on the other end of the definition,
staying rather than leaving. Great choice of words
as well. G'luck in the contest
