Love Me As I Am


        

Girdle your strength around you
Let loose the ties that bind
Your heart inside the lair
Naive the fragile mind

Love is not an enemy
From which you need retreat
Nary the cause of pain
That broken hearts excrete

Truth be told as well it should
It is not love at all
More so it's self-destruction
To think from love we fall

It is not love that fails us
When couples go astray
Unfounded expectations
Upon their shoulders weigh

Love is raw unbiased truth
No veils in love you wear
Time uncovers hidden lies
When used a love to snare

True love cannot be blinded
To think we're who we're not
Dare to play the liars game
Prepare to hurt a lot

Girdle your strength around you
Let loose the ties that bind
Stand naked ‘in front' of love
The end you'll never find!
