Love Poem: Will You?

Will You?

When bitter winter evolves
into a shiny new year-
Will you recognize my soft smile?
Will you take my hand in yours?
Will you?

When the heavens spill forth
and the sun smiles down on us-
Will you taste the sweet
berries from my lips?
Will you?

When your heart begs and
your soul cries out, bursting
into fiery sparks of passion-
Will you listen to what they have to say?
Will you?

When time stands still and the
mundane world disappears-
Will you allow your feelings to
flow from your lips like
January rain, drenching my heart?
Will you?

When that day finally comes and
your silent heart weeps for this
one selfish pleasure-
Will you deny its only wish?
Will you?

Or perhaps...

When you catch a glimpse of
my bleeding soul…shimmering 
in my eyes-
You will wrap me tight in your arms
and realize that this is your destiny.

Will you?
