Let Me Count the Ways

If before and after I had the choice
 I'd choose to love thee all over again
I'd Love with every beat,  flowed through my veins
 Tightly gripped to keep within my arms reach
I'd Love thee freely, amongst stars that gleam
 Being reflective light in hazel eyes 
To capture and seal a bottle un-found 
 Un-Quested for no map of ones treasure 
Buried in the pit of my souls fire 
 So when awakened I'd only know Love
My chest being the wonder of the world
 Let me count the ways of natural forms
Motivated un-sensed material 
 But need to be with the other half of
I'd Love thee much like weathered rooted trees
 Aged passed century's of its trunk's rings
Like a historical park protected, 
 Only naturally changing man kind
To Love among-st the seasons range
