Mathew 19:6

“So they are no longer two, but one flesh; therefore, what GOD has joined together, let no one separate;”

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways, 

I love thee to depth and height my soul can reach,

You are my end and my beginning and ideal grace,

I love thee to the level of every day's most quiet need beautiful buy sun and candlelight, 

I love thee freely, as men strive for right,

I love the purely, as they turn from praise,

I love thee with a passion put to use in my old griefs and with my childhood faith,

I love thee with a love I will never lose,

I love thee with every breath, smile and tears,

Of all my life, and if GOD chooses, I shall love thee even more after death.
