If You Loved Me

Browsing the internet.... I accidentally found this poem.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If you loved me you'd do it."

But what about me? What about my feelings? You know that I'm not ready, that it goes against everything I believe.

"If you loved me you'd do it."

But what about me? Am I not the special cherished person that you profess me to be? Are all the words you whisper in my ear just sweet lies?

"If you loved me you'd do it."

But what about me? Don't I deserve to be loved, honored and cherished? Am I only worth a heated moment in the back seat?

"If you loved me you'd do it."

But what about me? Is the love that God talks about only for others? Can love only be patient, kind and understanding for everyone else? Am I worth so little?

You say that you love me, so answer this question: If I am so worthless to you that you would chance ruining my life and breaking my heart, why do you want me at all?
