How Much Do I Love You?

How much do I love you?
Or should I say
how much you love me?
I hope you love as me
as deep as I love you
but you never give up
leaving some gap in our love
you think I will try to refill it
you left me no choice
why don't you love me more?
Or you hate me more than love me?

Author's Note

I think life is like that, everyone just hope their love will love as deep as they love back, but it's always not real. Actually, this sucks, I know that

The question of love is a never ending question. We need to be reassure each day we are loved and needed. A very good poem. Last line is the million dollar question. Better to enjoy the feeling of love when it surround you.

I agree, that does suck. This is a great poem, though, of that longing.

this was really thought-provoking work and i always like that in a poem. it feels really unfair when someone loves another more than how that other person feels, no? yeah life is like that sometimes. nice job here!

I agree with u here life is never fair so thats y we never end up getting that depth from our lovers love which we have for him/her.
Thought provoking.

Very nice portrayl of a feeling and situaton many will relate to. Some may find this confusing to read but that could be fixed by adding commas where they are needed to improve the flow. Great work with this!

It's sad when one loves the other more! Well written

I think true love has no limits to the depth of their love. Some relationships were only meant to go so far. They just peter out slowly over time. I think true love is predestined somehow. I loved this poem.
