Questions

in poetry •  8 years ago 

When I leave you, will you know how much I loved you so?
When my ashes turn to dust, will you know my love was stronger than any love you have ever known?
When you mourn me, will you mourn me, will you truly mourn me?

You knew, but you didn't know, did you?

I fought your fights, didn't I?
I had your back, didn't I?
I always sided with you, even when you were wrong, didn't I?
Because I loved you, didn't I?
Will it bother you that I left and am no longer there to protect you?

Will you ache as much at my leaving as I ached at your arrival?
Will you know, will you care, that I loved you more than I dared?
Will you tell the world that I was your friend, or will you tell everyone that "I loved that man"?
Will you remember me as lovingly as I died loving you?

Will you visit my grave?
Will you etch on my tombstone, "He loved me dearly"?
Will you even know, since I never told you so, that I love you?
