If You Truly Love Me

If you truly love me, let me know.
Let the fountains of feelings flow.
Do not wait till one dark dawn
when I will neither smile nor yawn.
Then, I will will be laying alone
and will not read the tombstone.

If you care for me, let it show;
let the garden of goodness grow.
Do not bury your love in empty words
or stab my soul with cool swords.
I may savor your sincere scars
but I deserve more than the stars.

If you want me, make a request:
confrontation precedes conquest.
If you must win, learn to fight...
He was once wrong who now is right...
Make actions more and words few;
and our dreams will surely come true.
