How do I love thee?

How do I love thee, Katie Miller? Let me count the ways.
I will love you until the ocean meets the sky,
And my lungs fill full of water. Yours will be the last face I see.
Until time ceases to exist, we will stand frozen in our glory,
And I will have you evermore. And never grow lonely.
For my entire soul I shall sacrifice if not but to sustain you for just a second's time. Within my deeds, may I take away your pain as well.
When the rebels take us to the gallows,
May our tears fall together to bring birth to a living soul.
May an ave linger over us everlong.
Until they hang me high atop the tallest hill for some false endeavor,
Know that I will watch over you.
I will love you until all the hurt from our past is swallowed into an underworld.
From an abyss shall we rise and conquer the world through love.
Until such a time arrives, take me with you in your mind until your blessed return.
I will wait in one solitary spot and long for the presence that you make.
The winds will announce your coming, and we shall be as one.
