How Do You Want Me To Love You? Poem by belle sampan

. How do you want me to love you?
Won't you just let me know,
As my definition of love
May be different from you.

How do you want me to love you?
Please tell me how.
So that our mistakes
Will teach us somehow.

Maybe it was not just clear
My perception of love
If love to you is space...
while love to me is presence.

We will find love once again, I know
That love still lurks in our heart.
Waiting to be captured
Waiting to be nurtured.

If love to you is space...
and love to me is presence
there is need to compromise
I think that is love's essence
