Let me count the ways


To Paul...
My better half, my other half.
The biggest part of me.
♡ me



How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways. 
I love you from the top of my head
To the bottom of my little toes. 
I love you from the highest high
But not from the lowest of lows.
The warm summer sun
Is cold in comparison to your breathy sigh
I fear not the darkness
For your gentle touch guides me.
Until by your side I shall forever be. 

How do I love thee? 
I love you purely
I love you simply.
My  desires and my temptation 
My strength when I am weak
My secret that I hold close
My saving grace when I fall. 

How do I love thee? 
I love thee to the ends of time
Until it begins again.
To the depths unknown 
To explore hand in hand. 

How do I love thee? 
I love thee with all of me.
