What Can I Do To Prove You Love Me? Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I did not ask to love you.
In fact...
I had no idea I was going to,
Until your presence latched upon my heart.
And now...
I am emotionally attached.
Cemented.
And had I known,
I could not prevent this from happening...
I would not have ever volunteered to be leashed,
For the rest of my life!
As I watch you do everything you can,
To drive me crazy!

I can not pretend I don't care.
You have me whipped.
And you know it!
I wish I could break away from your spell.
Even moving to a new address.
Changing your name, telephone number...
And the kind of car you drive,
Does not kill the love you have for me!
I know for me your love still exist.
I just don't understand...
Why you are playing so hard to get?
What can I do...
To prove 'you' love me?
