Litotes

I deny I don't want you, I deny I don't need you
I refute the assertion I won't love you forever
in the ferment within my heart I think about you not unendlessly

I dismiss the suggestion, disavow the proposal,
the preposterous notion I will not love you always
in the processes of my heart I think about you not unsteadfastly

it is litotes, loving litotes
with paradise in view
and in litotes, loving litotes
I deny that every minute every dream I dream within it isn't you

and I issue rebuttal and a disconfirmation
and a firm contradiction, and again a negation
that regarding my love for you, its size is simply not infinity

it is litotes, loving litotes
it is litotes, loving litotes
with paradise in view
and in litotes, loving litotes
I deny that every minute every dream I dream within it isn't you

I reject the contention that my love is not unbound
that it's not insubstantial, and I don't disagree that
in the secrecy of my heart I dream about you not inconstantly
