All Or Nothing At All

You tell me you love me,
But 'love' just doesn't seem enough.
I'm just letting things be,
Because I know there's just no stuff
Between us, to grow and to thrive.
We're just two friends, lost and lonely,
And without you, on I'll definitely live.
And, of course, so will you, without me.
"Love", when it does come,
Will come with a pompous show.
It'll strike, not just one or some
Part of us, but so totally, and us both.
"Love", when it does arrive,
Will seat itself at both our hearts.
We've yet so much of our lives,
Let us, for a few days, stay apart.
Because, I don't want just the word
To make sense, when I fall
In love. Because, for me, love
Only means all, or nothing at all.
