Love

Would you?

Would you hold me if my tears fell down my face? Would you hold me if the night time came and my heart broke down tired into a billion questions? Would you love me if I accused you , if I questioned and over analyzed every detail of your love? Forgive me , my heart's been broken too many times for me to end up like the one's who have broken it. Would you love me if I was high , if my depression was mixed and shaped by the illusion and make belief world these drugs sometimes take me to?

Would I still be enough if I show you where all of this broken poetry comes from? If I show you what's behind all of these covers... Would you love me if I was doubtful , if I ran away from your love because I saw a reflection of the love we might possibly have? My love is Magnificent , my love is magic , yes it will transform you. Would you hate me if it turned you into someone you barely know?

Will you assure me that you won't leave even though deep down we both know you probably would? Would you tell me sweet lies so I can sleep peacefully at night? My love's far too complicated , far to complex for a heart that has no fight. Come inside and dissemble the walls I've taken years to build and create. Will you love me when all my heart is wrapped up in complication and hurt? I'll catch you if you fall , can you honestly say you'd do the same for me?
