Appraisal of Love

How shall I gauge my love for ye,
Compare it with the length of the sky,
With the depth of the sea,
Or with the tenderness of the apple of my eye?

Each time I embrace you,
I feel the love flourishing inside,
Oozing from my soul anew,
Flowing all through my body and mind.

As is the nectar in the flower,
So are you and I;
Preordained to be together,
As long as we survive.

A day without you is more
Like walking through the Hades.
I will love you forevermore,
Until my breath fades.
