Would You Still Love Me

Would you still love me,
If I was a beast?
Would you still love me,
If I had ravenous urges?
Would you still love me,
If I lived in a cave made of yeast?
Would you still love me,
If I loved eating poisonous spurges?

Would you still love me,
If I had a mental illness?
Would you still love me,
If I had a low IQ?
Would you still love me,
If my eyes were crossed with stillness?
Would you still love me,
If my head was tiny like a shrew?

Would you still love me,
If I had a leg amputation?
Would you still love me,
If I had only three fingers on my hand?
Would you still love me,
If I believed in reincarnation?
Would you still love me,
If I didn't have the ability to stand?

Would you still love me,
If I'm not the man of your dreams?
Would you still love me,
If was unable to full fill all your needs?
Would you still love me,
If I was deaf, unable to hear your screams?
Would you still love me, 
If I couldn't fix your heart that bleeds?

Why has no one commented on this? Surely you have just said what we all question in our hearts!! Keep writing. Some people can’t write. Some people can’t read. Some people can’t do either. You have a gift. Keep using it!
