My love is an emotion from which I cannot stray.
Tempted to hold in order to feel.
Love freely given is unnecessary to steal.
My eye strays not left nor right.
Looking at you is a heavenly sight.
If you're wondering my intentions let me put you to ease.
Your wish is my command. I live to please.
To me, for some reason, rhyme goes with meter (or meter with rhyme).  But that's just me... rhymed free verse is sort of the odd corner of the 4x4 matrix or something.

"I live to please" is quite good - brief and (I think) original variant of such as "I live to serve" and "I endeavor to give satisfaction."  Nice.
