I WOULD LOVE YOU

I would love you if I could

not with tender looks,

nor delicate feelings 

encased in soft touches.

I would love you with harsh words,

and bold shoves

until you fell before your foolish pride

and caught my heart in your hard fist.

I would hold that fist closed about my heart,

feel it pulled from my tight chest

in heavy pants of longing,

making it difficult to breathe.

I would love you.I would love you.

I would If I could.

I would if you allowed.
