Benjamin Paa Willie - I Do Not Love You

Do not be frightened
That I not written
For so long
I have been looking
For papers and not finding
I had searched through
The many love letters
We exchanged
It took time, though
For I spent much time
Re-reading
I lied to you
In many of them
Frankly I do not
Love you
In the manner
I made you believe
I enjoyed lying
And must now
Enjoy speaking true
I do not love you
In the manner I whispered
In the manner I wrote
In the manner I won yours
And I must speak true
But I love no other
More
Than I love you-
The only Love
My soul knows

Benjamin Paa Willie
