Although I Shouldn't

by Leahward

I love you subtly, quietly. I love you as I subtly sleep, and I love you as I quietly wake. I love you carefully, delicately. I love you as I carefully pour my coffee, and I love you as I delicately turn the news paper page. I love you meticulously, cautiously. I love you as I meticulously apply my lip stick, and I love you as I cautiously curl my hair. I love you quickly, routinely. I love you as I quickly get dressed, and I love you as I routinely drive to work. I love you briskly, mindlessly. I love you as I briskly file books away, and I love you as I mindlessly write another word. I love you normally, unusually. I love you as I normally drive home And I love you as I unusually stop by your place. I love you regrettably, reluctantly. I love you as I regrettably watch you love another woman, and I love you as I reluctantly leave. I love you hapzardly, accidentally. I love you as I hapzardly bump elbows, and I love you as I accidentally drink a little too much. I love you defectively, selfishly. I love you as I defectively try not to feel so lonely, and I love you as I selfishly suduce others. I love you terribly, awfully. I love you as I terribly attempt not to, and I love you like I'm supposed to, like I don't want to. Awfully. I love you endlessly, hopelessly. I love you as I endlessly toss and turn, and I love you as I hopelessly lie awake. I love you subtly, quietly. I love you as I subtly sleep, and I love you as I quietly wake.
