An Answer I Long To Know

Would you still love me
knowing I feel so alone
and completely forsaken?
For I am but a lonely 
woman needing more than
life can offer.

Would you still love me
if I fell to my knees 
weeping out of remorse?
For I am but a dismal
being longing to be 
held without restraint.

Would you still love me
if you saw me weak and
feeble, lost and irresolute?
For I am but an empty body
craving another existence;
one that would offer love.

Would you still love me
when I am old and grey?
Yes, I’d still be sequestered.
For I am but a deathly mortal
that fears but one thing…
the loss of NOTHING BUT YOU..
