I Feign Not My Love Poem by John G. Nelson

I feign not my love

I feign not my love for thee,
Not my touches, not my kisses.
& I fondle thee nights & days
& my caress shall prove true.

You will appreciate my kind,
When love graces thou heart,
& love rich in comfort & kind,
Embraces, to yield thee warms

My love and kisses are real,
Not mingle with false stories,
To yield thee distrust or distress
But to comfort thee all thy days.

I feign not my smiles for thee,
Not my laughter or my happiness,
For in thee, I'm blithe and bonny
& my emotions, I won't hide.
