Love Allows


Love allows mistakes,

Let forgiveness flow free.

Love allows a servant’s heart,

What do you need from me?

 

Love allows laughter,

I love that joke you tell.

Love allows compassion,

You helped me up when I fell.

 

Love allows freedom,

I can just be me.

Love allows commitment,

There’s no one else you see.

 

Love allows bonding,

You know my heart.

Love allows joy,

Your smile is the greatest part.

 

Because I love you,

I will help you fight your deepest fears.

When the time comes I will hold your hand and

I will be there through the heaviest of tears.

 

Because I love you,

I will let my anger dissolve.

I will put your needs first because

Your happiness is my greatest resolve.

 

Because I love you,

I can’t promise I’ll never hurt you.

But because I love you,

I will always make amends with you.
