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.
