    The question seems to come up every day.

    And I've yet to have a real answer.

    But now, I can finally tell you.

    Only in a way I can express.

    The question comes..

    "How much do you love me..?"

    my answer..

    "A Lot. You know that."

    And a prelude..

    "How much is a lot?"

    ...

    Till now, my answer was blank.

    Now, my true answer comes forth.

    "I'd give myself a Chelsea Smile of the Heart, to keep yours beating"

    You 'aww' at that, like it's nothing more than a mere 'cutesy' phrase.

    It's much more than that.

    Probably something, more enigmatic, than you could ever discover.

    Only I know the true meaning of the phrase.

    You only think you might.

    If you are ever in doubt, think of the phrase, and the answers will come.

    "Replace these lies with brutal honesty, and thy kingdom shall prevail."

    "However, Replace this honesty with brutal lies, and thy kingdom shall fall. Flat out of the sky."

    Can you think of a more promising punishment?

    I like the use of dialog in this. It tunes it up from the normal free-verse poem.
