Just Ask

You say that the only fool is a joker.
You’re telling me if I’m not interested
You’ll go.
But I’m telling you
You’re  reading me wrong.
I don’t want you just for a play thing.
I know women come and go.
But you’re different.
You mean much more to me.
Yes…
I care.
I don’t want you just for a one night affair.
Shall we be lovers forever?
Should I just give you my heart?
It’s yours if you want it.
Shall we hold each other through eternity?
Do you want to hear my love songs?
Sweet tasting wine and love poetry is yours.
Just for the asking.
Can you believe what I say?
I’m speaking from my heart
When I say…
I love you.
The world is yours
Just ask.

    This one reminds me of one I wrote, titled.. These Three Words...As a romantic soul, I believe in the power of true love and that it's for all time. Nicely done and well stated, fellow poet... aloha..;-)

    Kimberly obviously knows what she's talking about. Look at all the crap I've put her through and she still loves me. Go figure!

    Sometimes the problem isn't interest...it's speed. One person tries to go slow, the other tries to go fast.....pretty soon you're going in tight circles and getting dizzy!

    A nice piece, obviously written from the heart. Be careful with that honesty, huh? You'll get the women around here to expect the rest of us to follow suit!

    Dear Bill, this is very beautiful, is it an old one? Dare I hope there's a lady involved? I would like to think so
    Love Joan

    Phew! These certainly sound like the words of a man who is in hot pursuit of wooing his lady love.I think all too often people want to rush things. We have these "expectations" based on the way everyone says things should be and the way we want them to be. Love should never be rushed because true love is ever lasting and will withstand anything that crosses its path. Nicely penned Bill.
