Quality Specimen Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

If you give me your hand,
I will hold it.
If you share your heart,
Mine will be there to protect.
If you run away...
I will not chase you!

If you go...
You go!

My love is genuine.
Not a remake of some kind,
Another may pretend!

And when you discover...
I am hardly like the others,
You'll be back!
And perhaps...
I'll let you in my life again!

IF by then,
I haven't been found...
As a rare and unique,
Quality specimen!

I am well aware
Of what I have to share!
