Assert the Truth
Should you come to meet me
And ask: how I am?
I’m fine. But to tell it
In answer is sweeter than sweet.
Should you come to greet me
And welcome: how sure I am?
I am full of confidence
But to assert it in answer.
Is to be more confident.
Should you but come to me
And propose: if I love you?
I do, should you but ask!
For, to accept is more
Beautiful than I do love you.
