Lie, Love Me Poem by Kelvin Owusu

Lie, Love Me

Rating: 5.0


If I fall, will you catch me?
If I were to drown, will you
dive in after me?
Cpr, will you give me the kiss of life?
What about a tear drop, will you share a few
if I didn't make it?
Could you not lie to me or hurt me,
if I asked to you to tell me the truth?
Could you love me even though you don't
Could you, without false advertising?

A lie in a love, a love in a lie
kill me softly with a gentle lies kiss
lay me on a bed of bricks
long as you lie with me
you could lie to me, blind me
hurt me, back stab, emotionally scar me
long as you tell me you love me,
even if you don't
lie to me to sleeps comfort bed
As long as you lie, love me.

Romantic and true. Many people would accept being lied too for the sake of love. Find your meaning. Spread true love. Unconditional

Very romantic finding the line between loving and lying. Lying the person one loves is hurting... is stabbing like a betrayal kiss... Delightful read...

A nice write, perhaps reflecting the notion that it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
