Who am I?

to want and be wanted

Carol Ann Duffy, Rapture; from ‘You’ 

on leaving

what if i love you more than anything in this lifetime? what if i love you with the passion of a thousand suns in their dying breath? what if i'd let myself ruined by an extinguished flame if your love was to gain? what if i call for you a thousand times? it doesn't mean you'll come
