The Ghost of Unconditional Love
On that fateful night when I saw her
A silvery shadow seen from the mind's eye
A glimpse of something there but not
I dismissed the feeling of knowing her
And carried on to my room
Where I dreamed precarious dreams
Of a Lover I've never known...
Each night of the full moon I saw her
A fateful glimpse of a shadow
Following me through the hallways
Watching me, or stalking me?
One quiet night, she finally came to me
Awakening me in a cold, damp sweat
Her wispy fingertips tracing my chin
The cool air of her lips touching mine
Then I knew, as sure as the hills roll onward
She was destined to give me
The feelings of love and understanding
From somewhere up above
A ghost?? Hardly, she's more from my mind
The part of me that wants to understand
The part that wants to be held...
The part that wants to be loved...unconditionally...

I like to continue to believe so. Its most likely unrequited in many ways...but its still unconditional. The person I wrote this about, I still love dearly, and unconditionally -- even if that will never be returned to me.
Does such a thing exist? I used to think so.
