Pretend Poem by Charles M Moore

Girl my heart to you's an open book
if you say you love me take a look
there's no need to wonder why
this heart is open wide
if you don't love me then
for my sake please
pretend

I will cherish you forevermore
you to me are heaven's open door
see the tears upon my face
are only there in case
of joy or emptiness
for my sake please
pretend

Girl there's one thing that I'm certain of
this feeling deep inside just cant be wrong
tell me that you feel it too
please say your love is true
and I'm more than a friend
if not then please
pretend.
