It is genuine love, but somewhat complex.
The type of love one is often utterly blind to.
Sourced from an invisible entity, nevertheless greatly tangible
             ever-present and awaiting my existence
Destroy the ingrate in me before I ever doubt your existence.
For your love my heart is fully reserved, in return for love I don't deserve.

The relentless questions wandering my mind
Infested with shame and hate and blame
Ever-high regard elevated with immense gratitude
Meaning nothing for love of this magnitude.
How can my appreciation manifest?
Do I deserve love I can't reciprocate?

Here and there and everywhere
even when I nearly thought you weren't there.

Equipped I am with your love, sometimes camouflaged as great protection
Oblivious I am to all evil. So untouchable, not even the Devil.
Instant wishes granted, although undeserving.

Elements of my last breath, immortal love and gratitude
desperately beseeching your pardon, for unconditional love of this magnitude.
Overlook my actions, here is my gratitude…
