In Answer To Your Question (Prose Poem) by Dovina

Suppose I tell you I love you no matter what you do, that nothing you can do will make my love go away? Suppose I tell you I keep no logs of cruelties, broken promises, abuses, past or future? What if I tell you you can run to the ends of the earth and do the most horrible, unthinkable things, and if you come back, I’ll receive you with tears and a party? Suppose I say you don’t have to put on a mask, and it’s okay to be anything you are and I will never punish you, and when you mess up, I will never nag? What if you know my love isn’t based on how little wrong you do and you can hurt my heart but I will never hurt yours? What if I tell you there is no secret agenda, no trap door and no turning back? At such time as I can tell you this I will marry you.

Does the strong man crush the delicate china teapot when he picks it up? No he does not. For he is not compelled to use his strength inappropriately. Some strong men do use their strength inappropriately, but that is not an innate characteristic of strength. And yet would the weakling be able to heave a fallen tree off the crushed legs of some dying children? Or even his own crushed legs? No, because he is weak. And is only capable of weakness, regardless of whether or not weakness is appropriate to the circumstances. Jesus wept.
