Poem- Degrees of Love

What are you?
If Spirit, what form do you take?
If Man, what language do you speak?
If Love is the only way to communicate one to the other,
then how should I recognize it?
If my chest is heavy with pain,
is that your absence?
If my heart feels like it has wings,
is that your spirit descending on me?
If my stomach is twisted in knots,
is that Love's sickness?
If I have labor pains,
is that your love birthing itself inside of me?
What is Love's cure?
And how come I've never felt more alive?
I should be suspicious of Love.
