A Love Greater Than Love

"We loved with a love that was greater than love." -Edgar Allen Poe For there is no reasoning with love from above, WE LOVED WITH A LOVE THAT WAS GREATER THAN LOVE. In times of darkness you saturated my veins, now only memories of true romance remain. I thought I couldn't without the depth of you, WE LOVED WITH A LOVE THAT WAS GREATER THAN TRUE. In sickness in health, 'til death did us part, we took a chance on true passion's heart. Inside my desires I've reached for your soul, WE LOVE WITH A LOVE THAT WAS GREATER THAN WHOLE. Beliefs in things that gave me truth and hope, with your adoration I now know how to cope. When you died, I died and; you're beating heart above, WE LOVED WITH A LOVE THAT WAS GREATER THAN LOVE. No more torment you endure on this earth with pain, now only heartfelt memories of our life remain. February 4, 2018
