Have I

Very often, we live with mates and significant others and not really get to know them. Part of this may be as a result of the stresses and demands of modern living and the other may be because of our own failings and inadequacies. Here is a piece that tends to speak to this tragedy by asking questions. Here is "Have I".

Have I

Have I been with you so long
yet not kindle the fire of your youth
Have I been with you so long
and not know the passion of your dreams
Have I been with you so long
yet kept shut the sanctuary of my heart
Have I been your friend of long
and not know the joy of your love
Have I been in so long
Just to remain without?
