Do You Really Love Me?

Do you really love me?
like love me love me
not for what I have
or what I can do for you
but
for me the real me
the me that is affectionate, considerate, sincere
and
able to be loved
Do you really love me ?
like love me love me
not for how my genes create me to be
or what my jeans make me have
but
for me, the REAL me
the me that can list ‘great listener’ as a skill on an application and it be the truth
the me that wants you to love me like I love you,
which is for you being you and always staying true
Do you really love me?
like love me love me
I know I'm not the best
but I'm damn sure not the worse
all I ask is that you give me the truth even if it hurts
Do you really love me ?
like love me love me
 If you do it must be genuinely felt
no strings attached
“no I hate the way your hair folds”
“no I despise your family”
“no don’t wear that”
NO changing me
because I am me and I come with me
And to genuinely love me,
you have to accept my flaws
and all
but if you don’t love me
don’t waste time trying to change me
because your “one in a million”
give me two million and ill find another you
so remember if you love me
 like love me love me
you love me for being me and always staying true.
