Maybe You Care

The warm feeling I get when your hand touches my
face when we kiss
is too much for me to bear.
For that split second, I think you care for me.
You hold my hands,
not for long, but
you still hold them.
When you call me once every two weeks,
for that split second,
I wonder if you might care now.
I try to convince myself that even though maybe you didn't before,
now you do
now you love me.
You do look at me sometimes.
Not at the floor, but at me,
and there is that connection between us.
And I think you care.
