i can not love you more <br />than i have loved you <br />for i have loved you long <br />and held your love so dearly <br />in my heart of hearts but now <br />my eyes have opened <br />to find my heart in mourning <br /> <br />and when the first bird <br />sings outside my bedroom window <br />he sings a sorrowful song <br />for you have found me lacking <br />though i can not understand <br />the how and why of it <br />and yet my love for you <br />was gentle and long suffering<br /><br />Faith Elizabeth Brigham<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-can-not-love-you-more/
