Love me not
For my words of passion sweet
Others choose words as such
Letters combined randomly
And vain are words
When compared to reality

Love me not
For my looks of passing youth
Others have more beauty
Still longer keep, this is true
And all looks fade
There is no greater truth

Love me not
For money that might seem much
Others have their own horde
Their own treasure as such
And coins change hands
But can never hold, nor touch

Love me not
For habit’s sake feel must do
Others been down that road
Holding onto past that flew
Just love only
Because I love only you

but why, then, Sir, do your words not seem like random samplings of thoughts strung together just to see us smile...and bring forth then, replies?  Why is that....?

But if your words are all I have as a way to see into your world...into your heart...then let me have them.....they mean so much to me....   SEA
