One Night Love

I've been through the worst, but want to give you the best of my life I want a one night stand with you, for the rest of my life I've been hurt so much, the thought of trying again scares me I just hope you're willing to go slow and take the time to prepare me Scars on my heart from past failings in love Wounds on my mind that I'm trying to let go Maybe it was something else and I was calling it love But it's going to take some time for us to get close I've been mentally scarred and cheated on I gave my all and it wasn't enough for her So many wounds, I don't know where I'm bleeding from I've been numb, but I'm trying to give you touching words I really like you, but I'm unable to show it I'm scared to commit for fear of being hurt again I'm only being honest and letting you know it Because if love is real, I believe you'll be worth the name Do you consider me weak, because I express emotions and show fear? I'd talk about how I'll use my tongue, but we don't need to go there That's for you to find out I just hope my honesty will make you want to be mine now I've been through the worst, but want to give you the best of my life I want a one night stand with you, for the rest of my life I've been hurt so much, the thought of trying again scares me I just hope you're willing to go slow and take the time to prepare me

Hello Alex, in your poem you want love and then you are afraid to be hurt. That is a normal reaction. If this is real- I hope you find the love you deserve. Have a good day my friend.

Yeah, I want love but past relationships have left me scared to get too close, but I'm willing to try again when the right girl comes along, thank you so much, have a good day too

Many casas Renne Girard is wright when he seaks about Love and romantic lie. Your talent is obvious in imagery, rhythm, rhyme and wishful thinking. Wonderful poem of experience like written with the pencil of Paulo Coelhio... Once I kept love on my palm and you can see its lines there,dip dug.Well: Green love is ready to die for itself. Mature love lets us know it deserves to live for it.

Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it, All love and heartbreak should eventually become an experience to look back on and grow from, every relationship gone wrong just makes us stronger and better for the person we end up with in the end :)
