i love you more than madness dear
i love you more than light
i love you more than riches
i love you more than might
-
i love you more than air i love you more than breath
oh i love you more than mercy more than mercy more than rain
-
you quenched a thirst
it scorched me to the soul
gave me silks and satins paid my weight in gold
-
my thoughts of you they never rest they'll kill me when i lie
my trust is steadfast it's a rock
my faith in you can never die

-
oh darling do you see
i was born to be at your side
i was born to be with you i was born to be your bride
-
you're the other half of what i am i'm the other piece
and i love you more than ever my love will never cease
-
forever darling my soul to yours will cling
my charms will win your heart my faith will buy your ring

-
i love you more than fountains more than life
eye for eye tooth for tooth your truth cuts like a knife
-
you drowned my sorrows drowned my fears
drowned my pain in my father's tears
-
you freed my soul forsaken a prisoner of the mud
happiness to me is you i love you more than blood
- -
oh i love you more than dreams and rainbows on the sea
i love you more than hope itself you are the life that flows in me

Nolan: Nice to see another ABCTales.com writer. Welcome. Your poem is beautiful. Such an endearing love. Nice words: "I was born to be at your side." My wife, Esther and I, are married almost 35 wonderful years. Richard LP

Thank you Richard! I envy such a successful marriage you have been blessed, I too, unmarried as yet. The Book of Esther reminds me of these words, "The strength of a woman is in her beauty, the beauty of a man is in his strength." You have a terrific amount of fiction on your site, do you perhaps list your favourite poems somewhere?

New Nolan Welcome to Abctales I entirely agree with Richard but all marriages have to be worked at most of all be treated equal then can deal with everything else age immaterial. I like how it is all romantically expected of each yes! I too envy Richard we have done 37 difficult years. So keep up the good work. "Songs of Songs" beautiful julie cavalcader.

In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep From the mountains of faith Through the valley of fear Through the desert of truth Through the jungle of doubt To a river so deep I'm looking for something Something sacred I’d lost && Billy Joel &&

"It's the eye of the tiger it's the thrill of the fight, went the distance now you’re back on your feet just a man and his will to survive, don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past you must fight just to keep them alive"

I know, it always looks better on paper. I think you should maybe go and see the doctor about your memory and that I think you're losing it.
