Something Inside
When we first met
You were cold.
Uncaring.
You didn't want to be around me,
And I felt the same way.
But we were stuck together
Like it or not.
And something inside me
Stang when you criticized.
Ached when you disagreed.
And cried when you sneered.
And little by little
That something grew.
And I realized
I love you.
Do you feel that way about me?
Do you melt when I smile too?
Would you cross the Sahara barefoot for me too?
Would you die for me too?
Because I would.
I would.
For you.
