In a relationship there are many questions we have...here are but a few.



Don’t Ask Me



 


Remember this,
Take love where you find it
Don’t ask for any tomorrow
Sometimes there aren’t any



Don’t ask me what I am
How could you understand that?
When you can’t understand what I am not!



All my life I’ve given everything and received not much
Now that I am older and wiser
I see it’s time I start to want more
And give less



I don’t expect anything from now on
I’ll pay for what I get
Not for what I am promised



So love me now
And I’ll love you
But don’t ask about tomorrow
I know I’ll still love you



Who knows who’ll love me
I don’t know
You didn’t know me yesterday
And tomorrow was today…yesterday

A sobering write, greatly penned! Would probably make a good chancon too.
Love and peace, B&R

Realism fills your poem with words of determination. But, be sure that you don't pass up an opportunity to receive without obvious giving; the best kind of all. I wish for you much of it, deservedly!
