Quantify
How much do I love you?
Defies to be measured by devices of man,
Nor gauged by time or calendar span;
Assessed or totalled, correlated,
Added, subtracted, calculated.
For the depth and breadth of all I feel,
Too vast to express the broad appeal,
Is greater than the total mass
Of all to come and all to pass.
How much do I love you?
Exceeds the full universal term,
No empirical evidence to confirm;
Describe or devolve, disseminate,
Divide, multiply, evaluate.
For the long and short of all my care
Dissents to liken or compare;
The heart and soul of you and I,
Too fabulous to quantify.
