Tell me, does he love me?

He was visiting at my village and we fell in-love immediately,

He loves me

Three days later he told me had to go back to the city where he belongs,

He loves me not

After a month I received a note asking me to move to the city closer to him,

He loves me

At the bus stop there is no one waiting for me,

He loves me not

A driver in a black car asks if I am the girl from Limpopo,

He loves me

I am hungry and there is no food to eat,

He loves me not

He tells me he made reservations at a place down the road and hope i am hungry,

He loves me

My family start to worry about me, he loves me not

He asks his uncles to meet with my family back in the village,

He loves me

He says he has to work all the time,

He loves me not

He sent flowers to my work and my colleagues are gushing praises over our love,

He loves me

I have been wrapping his dinner and leaving it in the food warmer,

He loves me not

He comes in late and kisses me in my sleep,

He loves me

I have been noticing the absent stares for a while,

He loves me not

Then he always remembers our anniversaries,

He loves me

He didn't come home last night, he loves me not

He ushers me to a surprise vacation says he's been planning it for weeks,

He loves me

He leaves the room to take his calls,

He loves me not

He takes my hand to dance when our favorite song randomly comes on the radio,

He loves me

He leaves mid conversations when we disagree,

He loves me not

He texts I love you on my phone when we are apart,

He loves me

He gives mono syllables responses lately,

He loves me not

I ran out petals before he could tell me what they mean.

Empty as the stall in my hand, he loves me not.
