Love Poem: Engage Me

Engage Me

To kiss every star
With a whispered word from afar
Would not be enough
If I pulled off each petal red
From every rose bed
It would not amount to as much
To swim to the bottom of the sea
To search for every grain of sand beneath me
I could never prove to you how vast
Has grown my adoration
Nor how long it would last
This overwhelming fascination
If I could shout from the mountains as loud
As the intensity felt from my vow
I would not have voice powerful enough
If I could sing for as long
As I wanted... to continue this song
There wouldn't be lyrics enough
To write every word in order to explicate
It would never quite demonstrate
For I love you more than all of this
More than all the rest
And I hope only that I can show you
When you ask and I say yes
