Crafting Words of Love

*Ah, that I could craft some words,*

*Or spin a tale or two—*

*Something moving heart and soul*

*Of how I feel towards you.*

*I'd call forth sweet-voiced Muses,*

*To share their melody,*

*To help create some words of love*

*That I could sing to thee.*

*A sonnet sung, a tale that's told,*

*That all the world might hear,*

*To help restore the faith man has,*

*So love might persevere.*

*But if I were to craft such words*

*That I attested to,*

*I wonder if I'd have the strength*

*To share those words with you.*
