I Loved You More Poem by Patti Masterman

I loved you more than carnivals,
I loved you more than knew it;
I loved you more than cyber-sex:
Couldn't bring myself to do it.

I loved you more than flowers,
I loved you more than wine,
I loved you more than chocolate
Boxed in a valentine.

I loved you more than history;
I loved you more than time,
I loved you more than fantasies
Lived once upon a rhyme.

I loved most every part of you,
Adored each part; each day;
So safely locked, inside my mind-
You were so far away!
