Tell Me - What Is Love

What is love???
Well….I used to think…..
well….maybe not either
I kinda had an idea….
more of a feeling…no, no
more of an internal upheaval
Y’know….like someone moving in…
ah, not so much moving in
as being sorta embraced….
at a cellular level…
a feeling….no, no…..
more subtle and constant
like an ache….not a painful ache….
just an aching
to see, to be with, to hold
to hope
that somehow
she might feel
the same ache
satisfied
when she saw me.
