Analysis of Thought that I... could love you

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



I thought that I... could love you
More than skies above you my dearest angel
More devine adorns you with a love greater than time
More than eyes can love you
Thought that i... Could love you
More than clouds caress you with dreams woven for you
More than tides address you as their soothings bless you
More than lives fight for you to survive fortitude
Thought that I... could love you
Thought... that I... could love you
More than light shines through you like the sun within you
More than a touch memorised by you in a mind felt for you
More than gifts could reach you; in the distant teach you
Thought that I... could love you
Thought that...did I
