You and you and you (A Poem by Cathy Gruman, revised 10/3/10)



One two
I love you
and you
and you
and you
and if I turn away in shame
and gather my wits to handle pain
will you remember the love I gave
forgive my momentary wane
or push me away just the same
as though I never gave at all
or supported you in your fall?
The times when others turned away
when you weren't pretty
I chose to stay.
So will you allow me here
this moment,
or not
and still receive love
from you
and you
and you
and you?
