All For Love Or Love Will Fall Poem by Florence Badejo

I cannot act like my feelings for you aren't there
If I keep going on like this I don't know how I'll fair.
To be in love is an amazing thing but it is also our downfall
We set our hearts on the line willing to risk it all
We do what we can to win their hearts but don't always make way
Again and again we try to prevail until we run out of days
We know that we have a slim chance of finding ourselves true love
But we believe that if it's meant to be there will be help from above
The thing is though that we never really know
Whether things will work out or melt like the snow
I'd like to say that I'm smart enough not to fall for anyone
But I fell in love without the slightest clue as to what was being done
I told myself when I was younger that I would never make this mistake
Let alone fall for a best friend that may leave my heart to ache
But it is too late, I cannot turn back the gears
I've been quietly in love with you for more than two years
You'd think that in all that time I'd tell you or give up
But sadly I just stayed by your side like a very loyal pup
I'm tired of waiting though, It's time that I take that chance
Soon enough I will find out if we can have romance
