Can anybody give me a more stronger metaphor to use?

I writ this for my girlfriend; she'll be a senior next year and I'll only be a 10th grader again...I'm really trying to impress her cousin here.

Baby, I love you

only I can not tell you

how much.

The Sun on my canvas

only represents

your touch;

it does not represent the feelings,

emotions,

and such.

God only made several colors,

guess she thought they’d be

enough . . .

So it is in these words, their meanings and their lack there of

that you’ll have to use your imagination

for some re-creation

to try and work it out

how much.

    Good morning, I don't know about a stronger metaphor, but do have some suggestions.

    It should be hoped certainly that she shares a sense of love for you. I might not have used "baby" however.

    "represents" is a stumble for me, especially repeated, though in the "only represents" line I might have not used "only" unless it's alluded to, while not being the actual sense of touch and move touch up a line, then drop the second "represents" and maybe use "express"

    "God only made several colors" UM I'd change that, and maybe even elaborate on what colors you might feel in knowing and loving her.

    I did enjoy the Gender you placed on God.

    In the line that begins with "that" and speaks of imagination, "I'd drop "that"

    in the last 3 lines, I'd go emotional, not leaving it up to her to figure out the depth of your feelings.

    in the "your touch" line I might have added, "The warmth of"

    The track with the internal maximum which capacity and the main hidden metaphors is i'm Too sexy by employing ultimate pronounced Fred. See, the catwalk is a euphemism for diplomacy and the shirt represents the repressed id yearning the superego delight of the 8 Fold course. Oh, it is deep. DEEP, i'm telling you.

    Colors are the best use, I think.

    This poem is for me, huh? I was a senior, once.

    Well, if you count my current age, I'm still a senior, Ha ! I don't go out with younger men, though

    Lose the adverb(s).

    This poem works, even with tongue planted in cheek.
