Love Me Enough

7 years ago
by empressjournee

I don’t want to chase after you
Like I did before
I don’t want to tell you silly
And foolish things like I did before
I don’t want to show you
How I feel even if you can see
Through me like I did before
I don’t want to cry as girls
Like me do, like I did before
I don’t want to dance alone
Like I did before
I don’t want to smile
Too much for you to think
I am easy like I did before
I don’t want to look and look
To find you were never there
And it was only my own illusion
Like I did before
I don’t want to see no other
Like I did before
Only if you love me enough
To do all that I don’t want to do
Like I did before
I just want to really know you,
and you know me so that I can be
All I can be to you, only you,
Like I never did before.

About the author

empressjournee

This bio will be short. I am a graduate of Medgar Evers College. Mother of three and grandmother. I love to read and write poetry.

To those who have been a great support in reading my website and those who just came across this poetry this will be the ending of my poetic journey for now. I hope there will be a new chapter in my life that will be a success and inspired people to be far better in their thoughts, words and deeds. I am working on myself and it’s been hard.... yet I am getting there. When I began my poetry, I felt so deeply inspired. Now when I write I just write (feeling burned out of all that has occurred and is occurring) and I am feeling as if my poetry isn’t moving in the manner that I feel it should because I have not place myself in a position to be active reading my poetry at live venues for my own personal reason. I wanted to thank those who took the time to read my poetry especially my love ones. Thank you for being on the journey with me. Peace and blessings.
