A POEM; SELECTION I, OF THE CURATION
Don’t ask me about love
“Why is love so illusive — How foolish can one man be?”
You may ask me about the Ocean,
You can ask me about the sky;
You may ask me almost anything,
Even ask me to lie;
But don’t ask me, please don’t ask me –
About love.
You may ask me where I’m going,
You can ask me where I’ve been;
You may ask me if I’m staying,
Even ask me about my sin;
But don’t ask me, please don’t ask me –
About love.
I want to feel a lover's touch,
On my skin that will excite;
If you told me I’m in love with love,
You know you would be right;
I want to know and feel,
Loves magic within me;
As I wander through this world,
It’s still a mystery.
You may ask me for my money,
You can ask me to stop your pain;
You may ask me to please help you,
Over and over again;
But don’t ask me, please don’t ask me –
About love.
I try to understand,
As I lie awake at night;
I admit that I am puzzled,
When I see the morning light,
Why is love so illusive,
How foolish can one man be?
I find the world a lonely place;
And love an empty sea.
You may ask me about tomorrow,
You can ask me about today;
If you ask me real nicely,
I’ll tell you about yesterday;
Just don’t ask me, please don’t ask me –
About love.
Should you ask me about my sorrow,
Or ask me about my pain;
If you ask either one of those,
It only brings up love again;
So don’t ask me – I can’t tell you
About love
