Ike knowles - To Love

Love, I want you to fill me in
but be gentle
be polite, understanding
don’t act more than you,
don’t make me feel less than me..
I gave you all I have
my self-respect,
my days, my weeks, my months
so many sleepless nights
so many nightmares.
you were always there..
in my nightmare,
there to scare me..
in my sleepless night,
to help me to think about you..
there is no more sleep
there is just a pillow wet with tears
With my own tears
don’t you understand, can’t you understand love
My tears dry on their own..
seems that it’s an early winter
for me and love, I’m beggin’ you
dont stay here anymore and don’t make me suffer anymore.
just go..
but be more gentle
because this time
I’m more fragile than ever..
