Words Like Petals

i love you, do you love me too?

words like petals fall one by one from my mouth,

delicately aspiring to inspire love, even while

a flurry of jabs may be best in this case,

straight to the point, straight to the head -

- i love you -

not "you glow in the sun", not "your smile drowns sorrow", just

- i love you, do you love me too? -

no dreams of tsunamis, no timid embraces just

- i love you, do you love me too? I love you regardless, my shirt is yours -

love poems
