Do I know love?
Do you mean affection with…
no objection
and a connection
like a good infection
of a heart’s collection?
Like a crush…
that makes you blush
like you are a lush
that makes your mind gush
with a hard rush?
Maybe you mean to cling…
but not a fling
more like an upswing
and a sting
to what is the real thing?
Or to get close…
where the insides grows
and the body glows
from head to toes
wearing a smile that shows?
Like to get involved...
where your problem is solved
and your mind has evolved
around your heart it revolved
no longer absolved?
Maybe an intense feeling…
that is appealing
for you squealing
for an inner healing
that floats you to the ceiling
Or you mean to yearn…
where you learn
for a good turn
that makes you earn
for a passion burn?
Do you mean to choose…
with nothing to lose
no longer the blues
but a happy news
an offer to not refuse?
So do I know love?
I am not sure what you speak of…
