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 -

To be honest it's all just razzle dazzle.

I've always had a liking for the more direct approach. Loved your poem!
