Do I love him? <br />Yes. <br />Does he love me? <br />Yes. <br />Do we show it? <br />No. <br />Do we know it? <br />Yes. <br />Will it grow? <br />Yes. <br />And each time we touch... <br />It is for just us. <br />What is loved so much. <br />Since this for years we've known. <br />But what we have 'together'... <br />Will never be condoned. <br />Yet... <br />Over time what we have has grown. <br />But... <br />Will we keep it? <br />Yes. <br />As our secret? <br />Yes. <br />And 'this' in our hearts is shown! <br />No one else can affect... <br />What to us is accepted. <br />Love between us is what we own. <br /> <br /> <br />Note: <br />In evolving times, <br />men w/men <br />and women w/women of like minds... <br />will be together forever. <br />Call it what you will. <br />But for them this is fulfillment!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
