Do You Love Me?

Post by rachit14nov »

Do You Love Me?

Lift the veil from your face
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Break down the walls in the place
Where your beauty hides
Take my hand in yours
Baby, don’t be afraid
Unlock all the doors
To your lonely heart betrayed

I know the girl you hide beneath the masks
She can’t look me in the eye when she asks

Do you love me for all of my fears?
Do you love me when I break down in tears?
Do you love me with my insecurities?
Do you love me if I can no longer please?
Do you love me though I am a liar?
Do you love me and my angry fire?
Do you love me as I fall apart?
Do you love me now with all your heart?

So much love to give
But you just can’t accept
There’s only one life to live
Without much to be kept
Sometimes it’s hard to comprehend
Life is so short and unknown
Baby, be my friend
Don’t choose to be alone

Making up for everything that this world lacks
The heart inside you is frantic when it asks

Do you love me when I push you away?
Do you love me through the disarray?
Do you love me if I get confused?
Do you love me though I’ve been abused?
Do you love me as I come undone?
Do you love me when I am no fun?
Do you love me when I don’t feel smart?
Do you love me now with all your heart?

You walked me to my car
The night I came to your place
Your smile sparkled like a star
As you fell into my embrace
We enjoyed the night together
In each other’s company
I knew that night would last forever
In my happy memory

So let me be the one to give you all the facts
My heart is so alive with joy when it asks

Do I love you? More than you can know
Do I love you? Above and below
Do I love you? For everything you are
Do I love you? Both near and far
Do I love you? More than happiness
Do I love you? With all that I possess
Do I love you? Like a work of art
Do I love you now? With all my heart

Do I love you? With passionate flair
Do I love you? No one can compare
Do I love you? For all that you’re not
Do I love you? Oh, have you forgot?
Do I love you? With every breath
Do I love you? Baby, until death
Do I love you? Since the very start
Do I love you now? With all my heart

Do you love me? Yes, I do
Do you love me? Yes, I do
Do you love me? Yes, I do
Do you love me? Yes, I do

I truly enjoyed your poem. It was beautifully written with extremely fruitful language. It was emotional but subtly. I love how you didn't toss random things together. It is very well thought out and very well written.

It is a really good and sweet poem. People really so do think these things, but, some of them will learn how to get over it and will learn how to say I love u, yes, I do.

If I was the one the persona was speaking to, I won't allow you into my life, not after hurting me!

I love the reply but sadly for me, it would be a no. It is obvious that the persona is a playboy.

Oh how hard it is to trust anyone with my insecurities
To open up my tattered and lonely heart
To ask someone if they would love me when i dont even talk to them even after they start a conversation....

I love this poem ....its descriptiveness, repetition and the heaviness of the words....its just wonderful work.

I certainly think if you meet anyone who loves you like that, you're insanely blessed.
