Love Me For Nought Poem by Folayemi Akande

Love me sweet with all your heart, in feel and thought
If you must love me, let it not be for nought
Show me the love that time and life will not rend
The only love from heaven that God will send.

Make your heart pure at all time as waterlike
Let it sparkle and spangle as thunderstrike
Leave me not ever, to bear this love alone
Chide me, yes do, but not in your mannish tone.

With you sweet love, I am no woman's ally
The strenght of our love is nothing to joke by
In every woman is trait of jealousy
The rhythmic flow of love's sweet ecstacy.

For our bliss makes love more soft, sweet and roseate
Your wholesome fight for love I do appreciate.
