here's the sentence:
If only you would see my ______ fondness.

i'm writing a poem based on a shakespearean theme of love, so it needs to sound poetic. it should be a synonym of great, something like that. you could also change fondness to another word to help your word fit if need be. i only have 3 syllables to work with! thank you!

it has to be ONE syllable and should be a synonym of GREAT.

here's my sonnet so far:

How shall I take your heart and make it mine?
I will love you from now until forever.
Until the last star has lost its radiant shine,
To declare my love will be my endeavor.
To the fathomless depths and beyond I'll go
And bare my soul with God as my witness,
All earthly possessions I shall forgo
If only you could see my ___ fondness.

that's it so far.

If only you could see into my self - careless...

It looks more like you need an adjective, since there is no word you are asking for a synonym for.

I would suggest "ardent."

Here are some synonyms: awesome, excellent, fantastic, cool, wonderful. Hope one of these is what you're looking for.

Bright

It would go well with the star imagery in an earlier line.
