Love Me Now Or Love Me Never

Love me NOW!
 	Or love me NEVER!
If you can’t love me TODAY!
 	How will you be able, you love me FOREVER!
I want you to love me TODAY.
 Tomorrow is not promised ANYWAY.
It is not even guaranteed, if today you will STAY.
 Tomorrow I can only hope for and PRAY.
Love me for who I AM!
Not for, who you, want ME,
 To BE!
For what you SEE!
 	Is ME!
Don’t tell me.
 What you, “think” sounds good, to my EARS!
Tell me the TRUTH!
Even if it brings an abundance, of TEARS!
Don’t sell me LIES!
 Expecting to buy your CHEERS!
Don’t sell me DREAMS!
 Of always being HERE!
Maybe just maybe!
 You can keep me NEAR!
For what you HEAR!
IS ME!

Cherish today for it is NOW.
 For tomorrow, you may not be AROUND!
Tell me!
 What it is, that bothers YOU.
 At the present time it is bothering YOU!
How will I know? 
What you are feeling, 
if you never explain your MIND!
You say you love me today,
 but yet, you despise me,
 for things, I cannot REWIND.
We all make mistakes!
 Yet you dwell only on MINE!
For what you FEEL,
IS ME!

I know things do not always turn out,
 the way we want them TOO!
You chose TWO!
 	I agreed to love YOU!
For better and for WORSE! 
From life until the DIRT!

How can you say you love me tomorrow?
 	If today I HURT!

You must learn!
 Everyone comes with MISTAKES!
We all have a past.
 We can never SHAKE!
Some more than OTHERS,
Many more, than SOME!

Who are we to judge the next ONE?

That what they did, in the past, was dumb, maybe INGNORANT.

It is our indigenous behavior, that’s why, Jesus was SENT!
So, the next time you say,
 “Love Me NOT or Love Me FOREVER”!
I will reply,
 “Love Me Today, or Love Me NEVER”!
