Why won't you write me

And one last poem for today, to celebrate a "treasure trove" of old poems I found on an old hard disk. Written seven years ago, addressed to (but not sent to) Kinga.

why won't you write me
why won't you grace me

with a few of your words
I'm not picky any words

will do, anything kind
I'll read and take in kind

anything warm I'll respond to
anything warm to respond to

I keep scraps of you as keep-sake
flakes in my memory to keep-sake

tiny hints of a smile to treasure
you don't know how much a treasure

you're to me, I don't know either
shall I forget or hate you

I can't choose either I don't know how much I
love you

but if I did I wouldn't miss you
and any reminders of you

like e-mail why is it why can't you
mail me sometime

you can't be so busy
that you don't have time in two weeks' busy

schedule to write just a couple of lines
have I scared you with my cowardly lines

with their affection are you scared that
I may love and care for you is that

the idea what is your idea
of me do you love me?
