Written for My Valentine, she knows who she is.
*Heart*  How Can I Count The Ways?  *Heart*

How can I number the ways I love you?  It’s more than one can count,
So I’ll not try, ‘cause it’s futile, a task I cannot surmount.
For my soul can feel the breadth of you, when all I see is dark,
Your love is what supports me, gives that necessary spark.

I think of you in times of need, and when my mind’s at peace,
Our love is stronger than the stoutest steel, it will never cease.
I long for you every moment apart, holding you I’m whole again,
I’m lost without you by my side, I know not how this all began.

But love you I do with all my heart, you are the one for me,
I know our love is for the ages, and everyone can see.
The love in our eyes when we see each other, it envelops us,
No longer two, but one; about it, there’s nothing to discuss.
