questions

tell me, almost-lover,
could this be
the torrid, twisted
relationship that
some unspoken part of me
has always sighed for?

...or do you really not want me at all?

will it be my lot in life
to chase you in circles
until i collapse?

...or do you actually answer my affection?

my obsession,
do we share a brilliant bond
that try as we might,
we may never sever?

...or is there nothing between us at all?

can you truly not want me at all?
