More Than Myself
This is my love poem for Vaentines day. It was written for my love Liz.
More than myself
If every moon beam
Touching your lovely face
Was a reflection of my love for you
And every lunar ripple
On the surface of every sea
Were expressions of my love
It would still not be enough
For me to show how much
You mean to me
The deepest reaches of the farthest seas
Can not express how deep
My love for you is my Lion Queen
The lofty peaks of the highest mountains
Would be far below my heart
as it is carried on the wings of your love
And the vast icy void of space and time
Cannot express the empty coldness
I would feel if I were to loose you
My being is warmed by the sun of your presence
As are the seeds of life
Warmed by the first loving rays of spring
And like the mighty humbleness of life giving waters
I will always seek the lowest point
And place you above myself and all other desires
I need you like the wind needs direction
I love you like the hawk loves the sky
You consume me as fire does wood
You better me as spirit does soul
I give thanks in the morning evening
And all points between
To the one who made this possible
for you and I
And now I give thanks to the one most deserving
Of my loving attentiveness
The one who both graces and challenges my life
With your fiery spirit
For you or the one
I love more than myself
These being the highest of feelings
I’ve ever felt
