Can your cold hands detect a pulse?
Can you hear the pounding of my
heart in my chest
When I am near you?
Can you smell me as I walk by?
Does the scent flare in your nostrils
and remind you of me?
Do your eyes capture my smile?
Does your brain register my love
for you?
Can you take my hand and bring
the end
To this tingling
in my fingers?
Can you ever
love me the way that I could love you?
