I could tell you
I love you
But why believe me
You don’t know me
Nor I you
What exactly do I love
And who?
I could tell you
That I want you
But what do I want
What is this wanting
Exactly and the price
Is there one?
I could tell you
I need you need to see you
Hear you touch you hold you
Soon soon please soon
But why do I need
Anything from you
What else will I need
Later?
Let me say nothing, dear one
Of love or of lust
Let me tell nothing, sweet one
Of wanting or of needing
Of hoping or of seeking
Let me sit silently in
My surrender to your beauty
In the silence
You become
The beloved
