Poetry :: The Question

[poeticwatcher]

Hrm, well. This would have been longer; the first and second paragraphs (are they called paragraphs in poetry? meters, or something maybe? anyways...) were separated to be filled in. Forgive me that I can't think of what should have gone there; and really, even in this short, simple form it gets the point across.


I do not push you for an answer
for I fear I might push you away
even though my soul trembles with fear
and burns with unknown shame

I will forever love you
please have no doubt of that
but to go forward with my heart
I must keep it intact

So can you answer my question
or do you need more time
I can wait somewhile longer
thou patience is a trouble of mine
