Love me or Leave me

Love me or Leave me

A Poem by poetforlife

 

LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME

I die a little more inside each time I hear your name

I turn away to hide the tears, they fall, I feel the pain

The hurt, it just seems endless, my heart just breaks inside

Still you keep me guessin' so my love for you won't die.

 

Love me or leave me, don't keep me hangin' on

Babe, why don't you just let go, to hurt me more is wrong

Either we are meant to be or you and me are through

You know how much I care, this love is up to you.

 

They say that love is blind and what they say is true

My eyes can't see the hurt you bring, all I see is you

If you're gonna love me, boy, then love me all the way

But babe, if I'm not what you want, you listen when I say.....

 

Love me or leave me, don't keep me hangin' on

Babem why don't you just let go, to hurt me more is wrong

Either we are meant to be or you and me are through

You know how much I care, this love is up to you.

It is a lovely poem, full of emotions and touching...
but i would never live love up to another... to love or not to love it is our own decision... and we can never change others, or we like the way they are and accept it, or we feel we want more, or different and then we let go... most of the time is hard, painful, all the way up to our decision, but as soon as we decide is almost like taking a tooth! belive me!
All the best to you

This is emotional as well as touching I could feel this write.

You have done a wonderful job with this..you have conveyed that feeling of "in between" that is often a place of transformation and often that includes the pain you describe here so well. Beautiful flow to the piece as well!

I really like the tone you placed into the fabric detailing the meaning behind the
voice, as well as the beat that sets in motion the bluesy rhythm, and the feeling
produced when I read this poem, "love me or leave" the title initiates an image of
desire of relinquish, the flow has a way of convincing the article, as well as

intentions that are meant to draw the reader's heart to a state of want or let go,
in saying one can feel the emotions placed behind each well placed word built upon
waving rhymes, how the meter carries each word with a breezing feeling, this poem
is classic, and shows in reflection what it means to ache when being embraced by

the idea of love, fleeting as it may be at times, Really nice job, thanks.
Take Care, Mike

This is very nice... a classic. My favorite line... "Still you keep me guessin' so my love for you won't die". My least favorite line... "Either we are meant to be or you and me are through"... the second half of this line (you and me are through) feels a bit wobbly to me... wondering if 'me and you are through' may move a little better... not sure, just a thought. Great piece overall... I always say the important thing is that you got it out, you set these lyrics free, you can always fine tune the details. Again, very nice - thanks for sharing!

very nice... To bad love doesn't come with a remote control so that we could fast forward the bad, and pause the good.. You did great!!
