If I Love Thee Poem by Jorge Alexandre

If love is what binds
me to you;
and you to me.

Are we just two dolls,
In this game of misery.

It be fun if both agree,
Twice the more if with thee.

I know, I love thine eyes and face,
But do I love thy heart;
Thy root of all been made.

Thy flower brewed,
And brewed too long,
Its effects diminished,
Its father long gone.

Too long thee waited,
And too long I weeped,
In that forest; fertile,
With tears; with dreams.
