i confess that
there are many things
i do, or have done
that give you doubt
or that shake the ground
beneath you

[for this i am sorry, but]

i think nothing of it
because to me
there is not a question
about the intensity of our love;
my warmth and devotion for you
sees no limits

but if i told you
i want to marry you
well,
that would just scare you away
