Can you handle it?

I realize that it is too much to ask,
too much to reconcile,
too much burden,
too much depression,
but I need to ask.
A whisper on my lips
A secret waiting to flip
But can you handle it.

Close your eyes and hold on to my voice
I have too much to ask of 
I can hear the thump of my heart
The rings in my ear
And the voices in my head
Thump, Thump, Thump
I will ask you again
But can you handle it.

Once more, I ask
It's too late
too late to talk
too late to listen
So I will ask you again
"Will you love me forever?"
Too late to decide now...

Hey Lorita, your poetry is alway great. ^.^ You can use so much expression and style, but for me. I just type down what I feel without having a second thought.
P.S. Should I join the poetry slam?
