Does He Love Me?

He loves me. The flower sacrifices a petal to tell me so. He loves me not. I drop the petal and quickly reach for another. He loves me. With this petal I dream our time together. He loves me not. Do I love him? Enough? He loves me. I pull this petal slower ... He loves me not. Petals die at my feet. Expensive, love. He loves me. Too high the price. The flower has one petal. It stands naked in my hand. I take the last petal and the flower is gone. He loves me not.

Congratulations on having your poem featured this week. There is nothing scientific about this method. I'm sure he loves you.

Oh I know ... as kids we knew too, but had to tempt our fate. That was a scary dare in those days. Thank you for taking the time to comment. I wrote this on a bad day. I was blaming him, (sort of), for getting sick and leaving me. That's were this one came from. ~J~
