To Be Loved By You

 

Oh, that I could read

Your heart

And know to whom

It leaps

 

Oh, that I could reach

Your soul

And glimpse to whom

It cries out

 

Is it for me

whom you loved

desired

yearned

needed

Once

And fled in fright

 

Or is it she

whom

You pledged

So long ago

To love

 

We are but two

All desperate

For your love

 

Let me out, I pray

Out of my agony

To love you alone

And to be loved

By only you.
