"IF" i fell

If I fell in Love with you
what would be my fate.
Could I trust you to return my love
or would your heart waver or hesitate.
I realize everyone doesn't fall in Love
at exactly the same beat or pace.
So me and my heart will devote a little piece
of our time to hope and pray and wait.
If any other lover's come knocking on my door
the key to my heart will say go away
cause another makes his heart beat fast and sway.
So if I fell in Love with you could you be true.
and if you care will you let me know in some way
and assure me before my hope goes away.
Cause I know from times I fell before
If all my hope fades away my heart soon unlocks the door.
But only one word of Love from you
and my hope would be restored.

James~
What a romantic little heart you have. This poem is very touching and soulful and I wouldn't say just another silly love poem because it's by no means silly.
Tender piece James

I just need to get over,
I'm not angry, anymore

run when you run,
love when you love,
represent the ashes
that you leave behind

Hey Jimmy,

You obviously know the art of romance
and because of it, you'll get another chance.

Very good piece!

James,

That one little word IF has said so much here.  So sweet and sensitive.  If it were me, I know I would!!  Great writing my friend.  Glad to see you have left room for hope.  Beautiful writing.

Thank you all for your wonderful responses.  I am at the place where I want to fall in Love with someone but I don't want to fall in Love all by myself.   I would probably be better off pursuing a friendship with her and maybe the love stuff will come later.  If it does happen I will be a very happy man.  It is very confusing sometimes...because you can decide you want someone and if they don't feel the same way you start doubting the relationship.  Should you stick around and hope her feelings will change or should you move on.   James

James, yes it is true not love is a two way street.  But if you take your time with (Lena?) she will appreciate you all the more.

Marina I am trying to listen to you and to my heart and take my time with Lena.  Spent some time with her the other night and I told her I wanted to be her friend...and she said, what, you don't love me anymore...and I said yes I do but I want to focus on a friendship and let the love part happen slowly.  She agrees with me so I think I'm doing good.   You know another woman recently told me she would like me to take care of her sometime in the future...you know when she's ready...and when I thought about it I thought no way...that isn't what I want..I wouldn't want to spend the rest of my life with her...but if Lena told me that I would tell her yes in a heartbeat...and I mean whatever she wanted.... a friendship, companionship, if she wanted to be my lover, or my wife...the answer is always yes..yes..yes..yes...
