Ready For Love Poem by Suzie Bakr

Ready for love

Standing here steady for love

Never deny him

Or verbally crucify him

I just wanna be by him

And in every sense of the word I need him

No need checking my DNA I bleed him

Turn me into Stevie Wonders and I’ll still see him

Cut off my oxygen and I’ll still breathe him

I just got to be near him

Make me deaf and dumb and I’ll still hear him

Thank God I was Ready for Love

Standing here steady for Love
