I Love You !!!

I love you with a permanence
That endures the passing years.
I love you with a joyfulness
That subdues all doubts and fears.

I love you with an honesty
That was born within my heart.
I love you with the calm belief
That we will never part.

I love you with a confidence
No earthly force can sever.
I love you with the certainty
That I’ll cherish you forever.

I love you with the humbleness
Of one who has been blessed.
I love you with the reverence
Of all that word suggests.

I love you with a fervor
That time cannot reverse.
I love you with the truest love
That poets put to verse.
