Love Me Back

Why don’t you love me

We’ve been through highs and lows 
I’ve been black and blue 
I’m the only one who knows 

The good and the bad 
Are all engraved in my heart
There’s nothing I don’t know 
Just give me a chance

Hug me 
Smile back 
Take a second to look at me 
You’re all I have 

Please love me

Don’t rush to pass the mirror 
I’ve carried your weight in love
See me 
See you
You’re perfect 
And you’re loved 
By me 
By you 
Love me back

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.

Hello PNZ Zulu, sometimes love can be one sided. It takes two people to be in love. Enjoy your day my friend.
