How do I love thee
Let me count the ways,
I love thee in my slumber
I love thee through my days
I love thy being
As the morning
Loves the dew
You made me a part of your life
Letting me know
Your love is true
But unlike the dew that fadith
With the morning sun
I will hold your beauty forever
Captured in my minds eye
Fading not with the dawn of each new day
But renewed each times I see you
What more can I say,
That I will love you forever,
That my love will never die,
That I could never forget you
No matter how hard I tried.
That my heart has belonged to you
Since the dawn of time
These things have always been true
So embrace them my love
With your very soul
And our love will live forever,
Written upon our life’s pages
Never growing old,
As the pages turn to dust,
Scattered by the eternal sands of time
It’s not about you, it’s not about me
Together held by our love
Throughout eternity
There will always be
An us...
"When a man lies,He murders some part of the world
These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives,All this I cannot bear to witness any longer,
Cannot the kingdom of salvation,Take me home!"
Cliff Burton R.I.PFebruary 10, 1962 – September 27, 1986

    Let me count the ways,

    I take it you like Elizabeth Browning?

    one thing though: i think it would flow better if you kept to either thee/thou or you/your... the switch was a bit strange....

    =) but i liked it.

    looks like the diversity in you is shining through!!! i loved this poem,... it is one of the sweetest things i've ever read!
    "To live,.... love,..... there's a song to be sung,....
    'cause we may not be the Young Ones,..."
