A Promise To My Love Poem by Pritisha Sardesai

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.
