Pamy's Place: Will You Say "I Love You''?

Pamy Blaine's questioning poem goes to the very heart of human love.

Will you say, "I love you”, When you cannot count the ways?
Will you love me in the autumn as in the summer days?

Will you say, "I love you," When everything goes wrong?
Will you take up love's sweet melody, when my heart can sing no song?

Will you say "I love you”, when there is no magic there?
When my eyes turn away from you, will you look at me and care?

Will you say "I love you”, when I cannot touch your heart?
When there is no feeling, and it seems we are apart?

Will you say "I love you", in the good times and the bad?
When I wander aimlessly, will you find me and be glad?

Will you say "I love you”, when I have no gift to give
Will you offer me your gift and help me want to live?

Will you say "I love you”, when I am old and gray?
If I cannot remember you, will you love me anyway?

Promise you will love me in all these different ways
For this is how I love you…Forever, and always.
