I love you more than tears.



I love you more than leaves
I've walked past
In my lifetime.
I love you more than emeralds
I've looked past
In my eyes.
I love you more than drakes
I've blown past
In my wings.
I love you more than green light
I've touched past
In my hands.
I love you more than green cards
I've read past
In my mind.
I love you more than sapsorrow
I've cried past
In my heart.
I love you more than envy
I've felt past
In my pain.
