I Fear The Number Would Fall Short

I fear the number would fall short

If you count the stars above

It still would not equal the ways

Of how I feel for you, my love

 

Or all the grains of sand

In rest along the beach

They still would not amount

Even if you tallied each

 

With every breath I take

My fondness brighter gleams

And every waking moment

It still seems like a dream

 

And if a dream it is

Then I do not dare to wake

For I would curse the morning light

If you, away it takes

A romantic? Someone captured your heart is appears.
Well, this is a fantastic writing and I agree with Jacob.

I guess you have an intense feeling for the lines in the one...just goes to the end of endearment for someone...
