Joshua Ayeni Poet Free verse

Love Me Truly

Don't tell me to go when you need me to stay 
Don't tell me 'no' when you mean 'yes'
Let's be truthful to each other
We need not feminise life issues
No where was it written aforetime
That ladies should say opposite of what they mean


When I said 'I love you', I didn't mean the opposite 
When I said 'I want forever', I didn't mean the opposite 
So why tell me to leave  when you're bleeding inwards? 

I'm genuine
Can you be that same with me? 
Let's be 'one' and not 'you and me'
Let's be bound in one
Just tell me what you want
Be plain 
I want your heart to be for me

I'm your man
You be my woman 
You be my Queen
Let me the King in your story
Tell me your heart
Let our hearts communicate 


Let's be different 
Others might be the opposite sayers
Remember we don't have the same fingerprint 
Let's choose to be different 
Let's be honest with each other 
I love you and I mean it 

I want you and I mean it 
I want the best for you
But remember to be truthful with me
I trust you to do same as I am with you
