Absent Of Me

I can't love you
The way you want to be
Loved
I can only love you
The way I know
The way I feel
The way I heard you yearning
To be loved
Perhaps you wasn't for me...
And I wasn't for you to...
Cherish and love...
It's not that I can't 
Love you 
You don't want me
No even the essence of my love
You've placed me at a distance 
And I remained committed to loving only you
My love for you 
Is intimate and elusively
Yours
To be felt 
When I touch you
To vibrate through your flesh
When I speak to you
I can't love you
As you are requesting 
I can't be friends with you
As our thoughts have suggested 
In truth the only thing I see
Is my wholeheartedly loving you
Or become absent of you
Just as you're absent of me...
