Is my love true?

a poem by Maryse Saldanha

I sit by myself and wonder
is our love really true?
We say we love each other
why then, don’t I have you?

How I long to hear your voice
How I long to feel your touch
The warmth of your breath on my face
Your passionate lips on mine

Do you really feel my pain,
does your heart hear mine cry?
Will you be there to comfort me,
or will I be left alone, aside?

Am I just another woman,
who matters not to you?
Where are you my love,
where do I look for you?
