I will love you
No matter how many times
The only response I get
to my heartfelt words
is your silence.

No matter how many times
you roll over
when I ask you to hold me.

No matter how often I present you with little gifts
because they made me think of you
and you leave them
to collect dust on a shelf.

I will love you
No matter how many times
you choose your friends over me.
 
No matter how many late nights pile up.

No matter how many times
I will have to cry myself to sleep
alone

yes,
I will love you.
