Measure not my love
with roses and gifts,
songs and praises,
with minutes and hours
with diamonds and gold,
but darling measure my love
with the tender words
i wrote for you in the
endless nights,
the prayers that
i prayed in every temple,
measure my love like a mother
to a child, without boundaries,
with the laughter we laughed,
and the warmth we spread,
love that we shared
and gave it to others,
but surely, measure my love
with the life that we gave
to love itself, yours and mine.
