If This Were Love

If this were love
I should long for it
each second from you enraptured
with sweet torment
acquitted only in your smile
your touch
your sweet soft boy-lips on mine
If this were love
it would call out to us both
a siren song an immutable cry
a need spiral, ascending,
sure and strong as fire
as quiet and serene as soft spring rain
If this were love
it would be too much pain
for in it's life I would
taste death if ever you were to leave
frenzy in your abscense
would accompany me
rather than this gentle ease I feel
when you go.
If this were love,
surely I would know?
