A monument of love

A monument of love
I’m building a monument of love.
Verse by verse, between tears.
Rhyme by rhyme, between hopes.
Poem by poem, between kisses.
When love blossoms, construction waits.
When love withers, construction continues.
Stronger than stone the monument grows,
and all the power of love, clearly shows.
It contains all joys and sorrows,
all anxieties and delights,
all longings and tremors.
Who it is for, he knows.
