the quizzical look
you have on your face
when you look at me
has always had me baffled

until I realised
that you were trying to see
something that’s not there
and were frustrated
when you couldn’t

I love you
but I’m not in love with you
I adore you
but not exclusively so
you are important to me
but
not the centre of my world

I hope that clears it up
