Two Love Poems

Lana Storey

I try to love you / to get you to love me

I try to love you to get you to love me in return but you will not

 

I try to love you to get you to love me in return

but you will not

 

I try to love you

to get you to love me in return

but you will not

 

I try to love you to get you

to love me

in return

but you will not

 

I try to love you

to get you

to love me

in return

but you will not

 

I try to love you

to get you

to love me

but you will not

 

I try to love you

to get you

to love me

but

 

I try to love you

to get you

to love me

 

I try to love you

to get you

 

I try to love you

love me

 

love you

 

 


I’ve put all my love into you

I’ve put all my love into you

and in return you’ve given me
