How Do I Love Thee In Response

How do I love thee in response.
Know there is not better way.
Such love does sour.
Oh to avail such a plight. 
What a splendid ace.
It’s more than can be said.
Fills a beautiful need.
Knowing what is right.
The best does rise.
Beyond all strength to endure.
Knows no greater space in life.
Only to abide beyond.
Shall not faint.
In all grace.
An empathy of Love divine.

John, I had to read your poem a few times because there seems to be implied meanings. But I think that you've done a very nice job in your sonnet!
