I already know <br />how it feels <br />to love with a poet's passion <br />Yet I've never been the object <br />of that much affection <br />I wonder if one day I'll be loved <br />with that intensity <br />If anyone will write lines <br />that talk lovingly <br />of my eyelashes or presence <br />If they will cry <br />after too many martinis <br />or listen to a song <br />and burst into tears <br />Think about me all night <br />with way too much wine <br />then go to work with a hangover <br />that would do Dionysus proud <br />I wonder if anyone has <br />and left me ignorant <br />How sad would that be? <br />I want to be loved <br />intensely<br /><br />alex haywood<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/intensely/
