I Will If You Will Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Please never think that I ignore you,
If I quickly do not respond.
I listen to comprehend every word you say.
And digest I do,
From your point of view...
That which is wished,
You would like for me to understand too!

I don't speak from my head.
I do more of it from my heart.
And perhaps you perceive this to be,
A disconnection on my part?
It isn't!
Nor with a consciousness is it intended.
I am here for you with a doing to prove it.

Please never think that I ignore you,
If I quickly do not respond.
I listen to comprehend every word you say.
And digest I do,
From your point of view.
Perhaps I could improve communicating that to you.
I will if you will continue to love me.
