Non-Erotic PoetryCould You Really Love me?Could you really love me?
I know you think you can...
When you close your eyes and everything is perfect and unmarred by reality.
But...
Could you really love me?
When life's harsh light shows me not to be the angel you desire?
Not so pure, not always true.
Could you really love me?
When life knocks me down,
When my face shows the wear of stress and pain, tears streaked down my cheeks.
Could you really love me?
When I stumble.
When I fall.
When I am bruised and battered from my own mistakes.
Could you really love me?
When I'm not your Goddess from afar.
When proximity shows my flaws?
Could you really love me then?
Or would familiarity breed contempt?
Would you laugh as I tumble from the pedestal you placed me on, so far, so high up.
And walk away laughing, as I lay broken.
Would you love me then?
Could you love me then?
Share the love
