Epizeuxis

There is something that I must must must say!
Ev'ryone really really should hear this
For I learned an amazing word today 
This wonderful word is epizeuxis 

Epizeuxis is a repetition
Of a word that is made for emphasis 
The tone could be praise or admonition
It could be meaningful or tenuous

"Trust me, right now's the time to buy buy buy"
"I need need need need this back by tonight"
'twas N*Sync that once told us "Bye Bye Bye"
"I love love love love love your new night light!"

I'm enjoying this new word so so much
It just gives my writing that extra touch!
