If you love me <br />You would accept me <br />For the way I am <br />Not the way I was <br /> <br />I did my share of running <br />The running has disappeared <br />And I have settled down <br /> <br />For myself not for you or any special person <br />So please next time you see me <br />Don't think of me as anyone special <br /> <br />I am just like you in certain ways <br />I can't forgive and forget that easy <br />For I care about my life <br />And not yours or anyone else's life <br /> <br />If you love me <br />Please allow me to know myself better <br />Please understand I love you <br /> <br />Though it will hurt you I know, but I need time <br />So leave now before the hurt turns into pain] <br /> <br />If you love me <br />You would accept me the way I am <br />Not the way I was<br /><br />connie Engstrom<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-you-love-me/
