My love for you is simple, deep, and strong. I feel it flowing towards you from my heart, A tide of unsophisticated song, Sung with much desire and little art. I cannot tell my love, but it will show In ways that even I cannot foresee; A love as full as mine must overflow Into everything that makes me, me. Just as the sun must shine to be the sun And trees burst forth in blossom every year, So I must love in ways that everyone Can see or sense or reason out or hear. Still, I'll tell you of my love in this: For fear, despite all, you might my love miss.
