As I Ask... Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

As I Ask...

If I tell you everything...
how much of everything
are you willing to know

If I give you everything...
how much of everything
are you willing to take

If I promise you anything...
how much of my promise
are you willing to keep

As I ask you for one thing...
but how much of that one thing
— are you willing to give
