If you will not love me well

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming drift in the moment's passion?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming way you shelter me?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming tenderness overtaking you?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming drowning in my intoxication?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming faith you place in destiny?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming way you claim this house of cards as home?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming trespass into my dreams?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming way you paint me into every brushstroke's essence?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming fever to touch and know me?

If you will not love me truly, then what of this overwhelming desire to call me 'my you'?
