I love your love; I hope I’ve made it clear
By giving you my love in simple verse
If every word released a joyous tear
I’d fill a lake in which love could immerse
My joy is more than teardrops on my cheeks
My love is more than love, if that can be
Each tear is simply something that bespeaks
The love of “us” is made from “you” and “me”
If making love is more than tears of joy
Then what I love is more than I can say
Although I say a lot, I’ll redeploy
My words before they go too far astray
I love your love like poetry loves rhyme
And more than poetry, your love’s sublime.
