dusk arising

you ask me why?

 

 

she asked of me
the unanswerable
\"tell me you cad,
why you love me?\"


For the way you make me feel
turning everyday problems unreal
for this spring my step now knows
and the vigour which tickles my toes
the adoration i have for your eyes
the curve of your neck, your soft sighs
the way you\'ve included me in
making us a quite impossible sin
and how softly you coat the mundane
the foolishness you make life\'s game
your impossible way with my stove
your beautiful, pert little nose
the indignant way when you curse
and that picture of me in your purse
and that one thing which makes you - just you
whatever it is, i\'ve no clue
