What can I say? I have my doubts.
Which way is it? In or out?
Up or down?
Or all around?
My dear, you need to choose a route
for one cannot be found.

Give me love or leave my side.
Unknowing I cannot abide.
What should I do?
I feel so blue.
Please don't take away my pride,
or let me sit and rue.

I need to know you love me still.
I need to know you love at will.
Might you kiss me?
Might you miss me?
Must you give me such a chill?
Don't leave me...don't leave me.

Very nice! I like it, I've written a poem like that before, but it wasn't nearly as good. My spelling and word vocabulary, are very limited. I look forward to more!!!

The question begs an answer. The narrator starts out strong in their demands, but in the end they are brought to their knees begging. It's unfortunate that all to often we find ourselves in such a position. I hope they answer soon.
