Always More

If not for you, my sky would fall

Rain would gather, too (Bob Dylan, New Morning)

“Less is more” is often true—
we don’t want to over-burden our friends—
but more is more when it comes to you!

You are the one whom the glass shoe
really fits, when we come to the end
of all roads where “more is less” is true—

because, babe, if I’m the scissors, you’re the glue—
I’ve felt how far your loving care extends:
more is more when it comes to you—

not less than enough to get me through
all my life’s daily twists and bends,
where “less is lessening” seems true.

I came to you, love, through the foggy dew,
I moved so softly, my feet made no din,
I needed more and more of you!

When it comes to you, rain gathers too,
but we know how to make amends.
“Less is more” is often true,
but more is always more when it comes to you!
