Rainy days and dripping windows,
Once again, beside my pillow,
I lay upon my bed alone,
But in a place to me, unknown.

Day two, beyond the first “hello’s”,
Clouds still hover, and even billow,
They say goodbye to each of their own,
They thunder and sprinkle before heading on home.

After their hastened diminuendo,
Most clouds scatter among the fellow.
I compare to them to see how I’ve grown,
knowing rain brings a harvest from a seed that was sewn.

My room is looking emptier than it ever has before,
Got the clothes on my back; boxes are packed, sitting by the door.
Oh, how this is happening oh so soon feels like a dream,
But by the time the week is up, it’s me, my dorm, and the university.

How do I love thee?
I love thee by the breath,
the height,
the lenght your soul can ever reach,

I love thee purely
As christ love humanity unto death.

I love thee,
from the sunset to the candle light at night unto the dreamy land
& beyond,
every second of the day
you are in my heart.

I love thee from tears to smile
& everything inbetween,

I love the every day of my life
until the day I breath my last,
may that day never be,

I love thee
with a love that is more than love,

how I wish I could speak in word
of feathered certainty,

for as love itself is eternal
So do I love thee,
beyond space and time.

For love is the voice of God
love is me and you,

If this feeling and words be err,
then no man ever loved,
and love never be.
