Tell Me

[haggardlilelf]

How do you know when you love someone?
Is it when you trust everything they say?
Even if it could lead you astray?
Is it when you can't get their face out of your mind?
Though other faces are as beautiful as a first taste of wine?
Is it when you believe when they say I love you?
But these words are felt far between and few?
Is it when you want to hold them every night,
With all your might,
Until dawn,
For fear if you let go they'll be gone?
Is it when you can't control yourself around them,
But you can't stay away because your drawn
Like human greed to a precious gem.
Is it when you want to kiss them,
Touch them,
Please them,
Make love to them,
Feed their hunger for whatever they crave?
Is it when youll do whatever they ask you to do?
Because that's the way I feel about you.

Yeah! I like this a lot!

in response to the questions, since I am such an old stick in the mud *LOL* it does not matter what a person says or does, if you love them, you love them. If they love you, they will never harm you in any way. Tis the nature of true love me thinks

Love is good when it's good.

Love is a double-edged sword, some of it's good other times it's bad.
Lovely poem, your questionswere well-written and flowed with one another nicely. Wonderful piece.
