How do I love you?
Let me count the ways...
But I started counting a long time ago,
And I'm doomed to do so forever!

Piece
A hammer lies content,
It needs no drive or intent.
It has no point to make,
Just glad of the things that it can break.

Sensual
In and out,
Out and in,
Stretching and bending,
Tensing and straining,
Gasping and breathing,
Sweating and burning.
Muscles resisting, Will persisting,
Will resisting, muscles persisting,
Tearing, regrowing, swelling, and showing.
Reaching for perfection, in a vain reflection.

Animal magnetism
My heart leaps up when I behold
A neodymium magnet in my palm:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural curiosity (and magnetism).

Devotion
While you speak,
I worship,
Your soul so large,
Your form so lithe,
Eyes so large, as if to capture the whole world.
To hell with the world, you've captured my heart.

Blessed curse
I just wish,
That you are never as heart broken as I was,
But that's not a blessing,
It's a curse,
Because it means, you'll never be so much in love, as I was....
That you are never as heart broken as I was,
But that's not a blessing,
It's a curse,
Because it means, you'll never be so much in love, as I was....
Foolish
Every word you speak
Every expression on your face
I pretend to myself
That it's about me.
I know I'm foolish, but...
Every word I speak,
Every expression on my face,
You can pretend that it's about you,
You wouldn't be a fool.

I pretend to myself

Every expression on my face,

You wouldn't be a fool.
Calcified
Your silence, so white so pure.
Your fair form, shaped like a marble statue,
Your guileless mind, white like polar ice.
So white, so fair, so pure,
Yet a cold heart of stone.

Let me count the ways
I love you, because you are you.
Even if you don't love me, because I am me.
You do love that I love you, and you don't love that you don't love me.
And yet you don't love me, and I don't love that.
You love that you are in love, I love that you are in love.
But you're in love with another, not me, and I don't love that.
You'd love if your love, would love you like I love you.
But he loves you less than you'd love him to love you.
But he loves you less, nevertheless
And I will love you more, for evermore
Even if you don't love me, because I am me.
You do love that I love you, and you don't love that you don't love me.
And yet you don't love me, and I don't love that.
You love that you are in love, I love that you are in love.
But you're in love with another, not me, and I don't love that.
You'd love if your love, would love you like I love you.
But he loves you less than you'd love him to love you.
But he loves you less, nevertheless
And I will love you more, for evermore
What you speak of
You speak of strength, but you fathom not it's twin, forbearance,
You speak of pleasure, but you don't know of contentment,
You speak of love, but do you know of her sister kindness?
You speak without knowing, you speak empty words.
You speak of pleasure, but you don't know of contentment,
You speak of love, but do you know of her sister kindness?
You speak without knowing, you speak empty words.
