questions about "i love you"

pre-text: so much thought is put into this feeling we call love, from finding it to having found it and expressing it.

love or lust
my head or my heart, which should i trust
my head: a mere science concocted by neurotransmitters, thoughts and ideas communicated via synapses
my heart: a biomechanical pump of life that can be shut down by emotions

i think with my head and analyze it with my mind
i touch you all over and i feel you inside
i don't suppose it's lust, at least not for the most part
so i guess it must be love

should i tell you?
how should i tell you?
when should i tell you?
all but absolutely irrelevant questions

the bigger question
the greater fear
the crucial climax is
how would you react

would you look me back in the eye and recipocrate or
patronise me politely with a "me too" or
simply pretend it was gibberish that slipped my tongue or
kiss me deeply and tell me you love me too

maybe the question to ask is
am i expecting something in return for my expression of love or
am i worried that you do not feel the same way about me or
am i scared that you might be overwhelmed by my brutal sincere honesty

questions waiting to be answered
answers waiting to be questioned
and while you wait for me
know that i love you
