Only Love 

  
I tell you this
with great hope
and trepidation.

we are not meant
to withstand such
excesses in love.

so indulge me in
a more meaningful
conversation.

and we’ll explore
the boundaries set;
enough is enough.

i am unsure if my
heart is capable
of this affection,

and even were it so
surely yours would
crumble with strain.

simple love is best,
you see, with fewer
forms of dereliction,

best to love with one’s
heart only, and neglect
the deeper kind of pain.
