Questions For Love. Poem by Shueyb Boyer

Questions For Love.



If love was arms, would it hold me, embrace me and hug me,
would it protect me from the evil of the day and night that surrounds me?
If love was feet, would it walk or even run to me, if I got paralyzed and couldn't use my feet?
If love was eyes would it notice me,
if I was ugly, deaf, dumb, and blind or would it just ignore me like the rest of the world do to me?
If love was a nose would it love my smell, would it smell me from a mile away
and know it's me, or would it hate me because of how I smell?
If love was lips would it kiss me no matter how my breath smelled or how crusted my lips were, just kidding? No seriously though! would it?
If love was a tongue, would it say good things about me, or go behind my back and share my secret with the world like hate do?
If love had emotions would it shed a tear when I'm sad, or be happy when I'm glad, or would it just not care?
If love was a brain would it understand, believe, or trust me no matter what color my eyes or skin may be, or will it be judgmental like the rest of the world is to me?
If love was life would it be easy or hard for me, or will it just let me be and let me decide how I want my life to be?
If love was time would it wait for me, no matter how long it took for me to find it, or would it be impatient like the rest of the world and leave me?
If love was a house, would it take me in and protect me from bad weather, or leave me out to become homeless with no hopes or dreams of a tomorrow?
If love was a path would it lead me the right way or lead me a stray down a hateful and prejudice road?
If love was shy would it approach me with courage in its heart or would it wait for me this shy boy to make the first move?
If love wasn't loved would love be in love with me, even if I didn't love my self as much as love does, or do I love my self more than love loves love?
