No Room For Doubt

Pretty please, wonder not whether
    My love for you is 24-karat gold. It is. 
       It also glitters like so in my eyes. 
                 Each time I whisper
        "I love you" softly into your ear...

   Foxgloves nod and blare their trumpets
    And nightingales sing into the breeze
         For they know it to be so true. 
         By now, I must've told you so
            A thousand or more times. 

     Do believe my love wholeheartedly.  
        Because to question how much
          Or second-guess its veracity 
Would be to break every piece of my heart. 
You needn't ask for verification, my darling. 

           My fingers write "I love you" 
          With each touch on your skin. 
      Plunge into my eyes! Don't you see... 
   The crimson embers of my love in them? 
    You don't feel the warmth of my smile? 

           To be sure there is no room
            For doubt, I'll reassert, yes, 
      My sweet, I couldn't love you more...
                        Sincerely, 
                      Desperately.
