DARE YOU TO LOVE ME



                      Would you dare? To love me
                          To the moon and back

                      Just like you promised even if

                   I wasn’t what you thought of me.

                                                               Maybe I won’t talk to you

                                                                    For months on end,
                                                              Or I might sing your praises

                                                          To the skies painted ocean blue..



                              I would give you
                        ‘The best gift in the world’

                   Or, throw your letter in the corner
                       To be read on another day.



                                                                 I can be the best company
                                                                       One could ask for

                                                              But, can also be overwhelming

                                                            Draining too much of your energy.
                     I will always cheer for you,
                            No matter what;

                   But sometimes,when you win

                         I’d wish, if it were me.
                                                                  You think I am giving you
                                                                The universe for you to keep

                                                                  But all I am doing maybe
                                                                  Is taking more than I give.

                   Would you still dare? To love me
                           To the moon and back

                           Just like you promised

                                 Even if I was
                         What I had always been.
