I Don't Know

I don't know if poetry moves you

if the words sink deep in your heart.

I don't know what music your into

or at school if you were smart.

I'd like to know you.

I don't know if you like animals

or what it is that makes you smile.

I don't know if you wake up early

or if you take hours to dress in style.

I'd like to know you.

I don't know your childhood friends

if you grew up happy or not so well.

I don't know if your heart is hurting

or which perfume is your favourite smell.

"I'd like to know you.

all the same.

If you want to

I am game."
