Hard Love

Josepoet;
If I told you I love you, will you say it back?
If I told you I want you, will you do the same back?
If I told you that I need you, will you say it back?
If I tell you what I feel, will you believe me?
If I tell you how I care, will you believe me?
If I told you my hard love for you, will you take it?

What if I ask for one chance, will you give it to me?
What if I tell you I don’t do heartbreaks, will you believe me?
What if I tell you my love is for forever, will you accept me?
If I don’t bribe you with fancy things, will you still love me?
What if my thoughts aren’t a mistake, will you take me?
What about my hard love for you now, will you say yes?

Zari;
Saying I love you back is no hard task,
But the weight of the love said,
Wanting you too I am human with flesh,
But is this want really mutual?
Feeling you blood runs in my veins,
But how deep is the said feeling?
Caring you claim to do,
Can you take a bullet for me?

Chances I have given more than enough,
Frogs I have kissed all thousand,
I never found that my right sir,
In you what is different from them?
How do I love a thousand plus one?
If I accept you, where will my fate lie?
How will you convince my heart to love again?
Will you teach me how to trust again?
