Whence forth a notion
sprouts from my heart
a whisper from my soul
It calls out to thee
~My Truest love~
No other expectations
but to love and be loved
so much, that I am you
and you become I
~Intertwined, as one~
Author notes
[.1.] Exerpt from Pablo Neruda's Sonnet XVII
"I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep."

Interesting. It has that aged feel that mostly likely connects with your use of archaic language. I liked it though. Good work.
