proof of love

I know full well,my beautiful one,how much you love me,for your love has touched me

Your love has reached my earsloud and clear,wrapped in your words,as to a foundering ship comethe nearby lights of the shoreand of hope

Your love has reached my handswarm and tenderin your caresses,as to a drowsing lily comethe tenderness of the breezeand the warmth of the sun

You have given me your lovein your sweet laughter,in your bitter tears,in your silence…

I know full well,my love,how much you love meand I know full wellhow much I love you

Today my heart overflows,like a cup of goldfilled with your exquisite wine

I need no proof at allof your love,nor do I ask it of you,nor can you give it

How could we put love to the test,if in truth it is love that tests uswith its fire and its truth?

Love is,in itself,our best proof
