Dancer

Dear Love are you dizzy
from the way I dance around you
at once a smile and a frown
you love me
but not my behavior
and wonder if I'll ever realize
the depth of you affection

You tend me beyond the reason of need
while you live in a world that makes more sense
you know there is no one who loves you more than I
but of all your suitors
I'm the one who turns love into a question

And what a question it is
how is it that our spirits are one
yet we travel in separate directions
how is it that our needs are the same
yet we can't connect

And so I dance around you
begging the reassurance of a kiss
hoping that if I get that kiss
you give it freely
so that I might comprehend
the depth of your affection
