"Do you Love me?" the internal process"Do you love me?"
She whispered in my ear.
A quiet long silence filled the cavern of my brain
Then suddenly the question echoed through my mind once again
"Do You Love
Me?"
This question was torn apart in my brain
Do... What does do mean?
The action of doing?
NO I can't have do in the definition
How can I answer if I don't know what Do means?
Shit...umm...Next word...
You: pronoun
second person referring to pronoun I
or me
Because I am Jesse
the one being spoken too,
The voice in the head
saying this,
The one of the doing
but what does doing mean
Let's go to three-- 'tis a lucky number
Word three: Love
System over load!
Love definition:COMPLETELY UNKNOWN!
Love, it's always
been a myth to me.
Just Bullshit word, Just like hope, to make us feel alive
She ask again
"Do, you, Love... me"
Each word seemed its own
Possibly caused by the slow motion take of the situation
Pulling me close to her
As if trying to squeeze an answer out of me,
Or possibly for protection against the answer possibly
having a sharp blade
Love, Love, Love? What the hell is the meaning of love?
My mind in over load seconds felt like hours
Love...
philosophers have pondered love forever
For a moment every poem and song of love ran through my mind
The annoying little clichés piercing the chaos of my brain
Tighter she pulled me closer resting my head on her shoulder
I am not a man of lying
My word is strong! and what's the point of lying when nobody
believes you anyway?
Love? Should I
move on to the last word? Yes, I shall what was it again?
That was hours ago, minutes maybe seconds... I don’t' know
"Do you Love..."
Shit what was it? Such a simple question!
She loosened up her grip and slowly her body backwards...
she was going to speak...
Think quickly what was it "Do you love?" Who?
Who do I love?
SHIT!
Finally her face was in view point
"Me"
Me referring to her
The girl in my arms
or was I only in hers?
The girl with the
eyes that could melt butter on a cold pancake
I hate clichés
The girl that
formulated my thought
I felt a warm sense of something in my chest
My chest? My heart an organ for beating blood into my arms
Why feel it there? It's associated to love. But why?
"I don't know" I muttered out loud
SHIT I spoke I’m not suppose to speak
Shame on you mouth for muttering the thoughts of my head
Over drive a shear terror now entering along with the chaos
of my analytical mind
What is love?
The more she pulled back I could see her face
A sweet smile granting me the hope to find the answer
...I already said I don't know
...hope is a bullshit word
I Don't? Do I don't
know what do means so possibly I do know
She spoke
I saw the words flying out of her mouth
They were little butterflies
Why is butter in butterflies?
I love butter
So maybe I do love
something
Her eyes melted butter
How odd! Am I insane?
I couldn't hear her, but the butter flies tickled my ears
I could just see her smiling
What was she saying?
Was my selective hearing turned on?
I just saw her lips moving as the corners were slightly
pulled up
Love?
I felt a rise of passion for some reason in the moment
Was that love?
I see these movies where the people say they are in love and rip each others clothes off
Could I get that reaction?
I hope not, isn't that lust
Lust?
Was this just lust the sweet passion which breeds
illegitimate children?
What is love?
ME?
She still was speaking
What the hell is she saying?
DO I have my selective hearing on?
If it was on wouldn't it select to hear what she is saying
Or possibly is it muting the world because I am afraid?
I once said I was blind to the world but am I deaf to it
too?
No,
I suddenly out of no where every thought in my mind heard a
scream in the back
It was the illogical section of my mind which was hiding in
the back
DUMBASS DUMBASS DUMBASS it was screaming
Escape from Monty Crisco?
I love Crisco
And butter
Am I fat?
Is she fat? No she's thin
Love what is love
Something shiny
Love, LOVE!
Her, referring to the girl right in front of me
The one that lights my way and the reason I don't feel alone
right now
Future, what is? Nothing, too hard of a concept to grasp
something
Her being "me" the last part of the question
You? Referring to me? She's me too what? How
Melting butter on a pancake?
Is she the butter or the pancake?
Possibly both and the warmth combined
Who am I? The pancake?
No the butter I melt she melts me
She’s me, I am me
We are one?
Possibly not quite she knows love I don't
YES!
Butter
Taste
GOOD! But not butter sugar sweet cliché alright
Arms warmth
Words flow mouth listen
Theories
Deaf?
Can I hear her what is she saying
Flower cliché' light blinding words flying?
Softly gracing my ear
ONE!
Close, not quite
But close
Clothes
Not off, not coming off
Maybe lust?
Possibly but not quite
Stepping stone of
Stepping stone
Name
Hers closer
Help freedom save me her name YES!
Closer I felt the answers in my mind
Singing songs of past in cliché
One is the simple number complying three names to one person
She stepping stone or elevator leading me towards the
definition
!!!!!!
Instead of nothing the words turn into a song, but she
wasn't singing
"I don't know" I say
She looks a little confused I wish I knew what she was
saying, possibly painting graces onto the canvas of my mind, but little did she
know the canvas was full of thought already
"I don't know if I love
you or not, but what I do know is this is the closest to love I’ve ever felt. You are the defining, not logic, nor illogical
thought but you. Love name yours
yes"
Apparently she was proud I didn't know, either did she...
but I thought she loved me?
Asking? What if I said yes? Would she have conformed?
Oh well all is right
I pulled her closer
"Bunny, you melt butter on a cold pancakes... and I’m
the butter"
"Then, what or who are the pancakes? And why are they
cold?"
"Good question, but I love melted butter even though I don't know what that means" |
