You're Not Ready Poem by Marcquiese Burrell

Love is sitting atop the shelf
confusion will relieve itself
but you're not ready for love
no, you're not ready for love
so if you fall, your attempts
will be in vain

You can alter
the winds of circumstance
what's broken is worth the chance
if you're ready for love
it's helpful to understand
where it went wrong
Make it like it was to
where passion first began

You want your blues
wiped away
when the hearts been
dumped into the street
it'll look somewhere else
just to feel a love
to be swept off it's feet
but you're not ready for love
no, you're not ready for love
so if you fall, your attempts
will be in vain
