If you’re going to love me,
You’re going to have to be patient.
Patient with how I fall for you
Because so many times I have fallen
And broken.
But when I do fall for you
I will fall past the many layers
Of dirt and soot,
Roots and rocks
pain and fear
To the molten core of this Earth
And I will love you from there
And through the sky.
If you’re going to love me,
Don’t leave me crying in the dark.
Instead, sit beside me and simply be
And I will love you for it.
Don’t leave me wondering
For so many painful nights
Don’t make me a question,
Don’t make me defend you
To the people who love me.
If you’re going to love me
You need to understand
That I love me,
And I love me too much
To watch myself suffer.
They say when a man leaves
He goes quickly but comes back,
When a woman leaves
She has been waiting for far too long
But when the last straw is broken,
she’s gone.
If you’re going to love me,
You will love bright, dangerous fire
And soft, deep sea.
Many are too scared
To drown or burn.
But if you can be brave,
You can stand with me.
