I love you further than the edge of what is known
and past the limits of even my imagination
I doubt you will ever understand
My soul leaps with the thought of you
and my tears flow like cloudbursts
driven by the thunder in my heart
and the lightning in my soul
I whisper your name at night
to myself
As I lay in my bed trying to sleep
Sleep, if only so I can dream of you
My heart calls to you
echoing into the blackness of night
but I know you can not hear
Tears, so many tears
Cry myself a river
for all the good
I know it will do me
I cry anyway
My friends ask
Why do you torture yourself so?
And this is my reply
I don't think Love knows my name
But Pain and I are old friends
And dancing with pain
is still better
Then not dancing at all

It is the last stanza that conveys the message best and is the most powerful. A lovely write
