PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

If love is patient and kind,

Then why does it piss me off so much when you're late to show up for our dates?



If love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude,

Then why do I cringe everytime you look at another girl?

Or appreciate another's beauty?

And why do I want to show you off all the time, if I'm not meant to boast?

And rude?! Well... Heh.



If love does not demand its own way,

Then why do I demand to be with you,

And why do you demand me to love you in the way that I do?



If love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged,

Then why do I remember all the hurtful things you ever said to me,

And why do they still make me cry?



If love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance;

Then why have I lost all faith that you'll stay with me,

And support me through this?

If it really endures through every circumstance,

Why do I feel like I'm burdening you with my being?



If love will last forever,

How come it's gone for you?

And if it does last forever,

How long will that ben?

Because if I carry on feeling like this,

I'm never going to know whether I'm coming or going,

Whether I'm loving or loathing,

Or whether I'm just falling in lust with you.
