Mike
note* i would just like to say that i have been an over protective control freak to my love , while she has been pretty loyal. i love her so much i make mistakes like thinking on a daily basis that i will lose her but i know she loves me back as much as i love her.....i think.
Notice the part I changed to red - Patient endurance, my friend. Do not let the fear of what you haven't lost make you lose your mind. Let every minute with her fill your cup. Enjoy THE MOMENT!

Sweetie, that insecurity you have will slowly kill even the truest love ...
trust me, I know. You have to let it go and use the energy you put forth worrying for better things ... like love and respect - to distrust someone is to disrespect them - not good, not good at all. My daughter just broke up with her boyfriend for this very reason, he didn't trust her and it drove her insane. If someone is going to cheat, all the worrying and talking about it in the world won't stop them - being deeply in love will! Having said all that .... Awesome poem!!

You are very blessed to be in love.
Not every one finds that, And for some it takes time. You have found it at a young age and God has truly blessed you with it. I have never been in love myself so I don't know if what I have to say has any value, but it sounds to me like you have found something truly special to hold on to.

being in love is a hard thing...Cuz you try to hold on while trying to give them room to do their own thing..Enjoy it..don't carry it..It is made to hold the heart not the mind..You can be in love just knowing that there are tons of seconds each day that you can be sure she is thinking of you...Nice write!

Mike, one can't force anyone...loving someone self-lessly...
requires learning to overcome natural negative emotions like jealousy, possesiveness...maturity is a slow process, so don't be so hard on yourself..your heart is in the right place..take care! - Ash

meeks, I really love it that poetry doesn't have to rhyme but can be free form. It is a great way to put ones feelings and thoughts into a beautiful organization. I'm glad that you are willing to face any "weaknesses" in your relationship and work on those areas. That's what real love takes, lots of work from both parties.

You are very young...
...so, it's unlikely that you and her have been together for a very long time, which means that the love is as fresh in her heart as it is in yours, which also means that you're not out of it, just yet.
So, just commit yourself to doing the right thing when....and it's likely....she comes back.
And judging from this intensely written and honest poem of your's, you've already made great strides in that direction.
Best of success to you!

My fear, my love
This is very beautiful. We all go through times in our marriages where we doubt and it is great to hear a man admit that he is wrong at times. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Hey, I am glad that you woke up to it before it was too late. Congrats! I was married to a control freek who always thought he was going to loose me. He always thought I would never be layal either and I was. For seventeen years I tried to let him see that my heart was loyal to him. He ended up having an affiar on me instead. I still forgave him and moved on, yet he became more and more controlling after that in an abusive way. I finally had to divorce him because I knew it would never change after 17 years of hope and mental abuse. Read my poems and note the dates as to when I wrote them. Most of my poems were written to him back when we were together. That is how much a woman can love a man-----IF---He lets her. An open heart is an open door, let her walk in and show you the world.

Oh Mike, if you are giving these to her, relax. I think any woman would love to get this from her man. They are so ingenuous.
Side bar: I couldn't bring Bill's name with the poem because I had just found my peace. Maybe it could be called Lost Love (a lament)
I do think this is so wonderful that your are so smitten that you are focused on poetry about your love. It is a special time and enjoy it and moderation as well.
