Can you love
one day a week?
or twice a month?

Can you love
on two stolen moments
in a miriad of missed
minutes, hours, days?

Can you love
in a rush of shared
words, passions
and desires?

Can you love
from afar
never really
knowing me?

Can you love
an idea?
an image
you paint?

Do you love?
clinging to that
feeling of elation
when we met
and sparked?

Do you love?
feeding that feeling?
Coveting it
allowing it to be
feel
more than it is?

Do you?
can you?
love me???
