COULD YOU LOVE ME
I wonder if you would love me
if I was your image of gold
if I was as green as an emerald
that glisteneth and glowed

I wonder if you would love me
If my skin was as pale as peach
would your love be extended to me
when you see me now
would your heart be filled with glee

I came with a hopeful look
with a smile upon my face
hopeful hardly breathing, waiting intensly
there was nothing there for me
not a welcome, just more pain, sighing

The answer was shown to me
as I appeared outside your door
you were so ashamed
you squinted looked to see who it was
then you turned, hurrying, your back to me
almost running inside the door


You gave me your answer
you wished I never came
it struck me and then I knew
as the lightning flashed
nothing for you had changed
tradition means more to you
than the love of your only child

You could not love me as I was
to you it was as if I'd never been born,just died
I drove away and then pondered
I can no longer play this game
your approval is neither necessary,nor desired
but, I'll take your acceptance just the same
