Let me Count the Ways

I could not have loved a human more
or hoped or dreamed or prayed
so sincerely
that you would be near me
to be with me forever
into eternity and evermore.
I could not have waited
and suffered such betrayal
any more patiently
or watched you indifferently
turn your back on me
while my heart broke in shards
as blood flowed from the cracks
and tears I held back
I could not have loved you more
or wanted to give my world to you
so intensely
I could not have loved you more
you were simply the death of me-
but only temporarily.
