Men and Love

Can I not
Munch on my potato chips
And watch some football
Or play my video games
Or read a good novel,
Without you interrupting
My every thought?
 
Can you forgive me
Since all I can do 
Is munch on my pretzel sticks
And change the channel
Or sketch meaningless drawings
Or drown in musty bed sheets,
While I think of us together
Full of glee?
 
I still wonder when I will find 
The Lancelot in the legend of my heart --
Where in just half a spark,
I'll show you, my Lady Guinevere,
Our happiness …
My commitment … 
Will never be left behind.
