Poetry / How do I...?

Oh tell me how I love you
How do I need to love you?
Do I need to love you strand by strand as I caress the intricacies of your soul?
Maybe I should achieve such through gooey words
That smear across your chest in clumsy excitement
That drip into your heart by means of innocent curiosity
How should I love you if I cannot see you
If you do not exist
I love you through my emptyness that wanders lonely at night
I’ll love you through the heart beats I skipped on the way to meet you
Yes, I love you
But only, do I wish to know you
