Would You Love Me If I Wasnt a Poet

Would you love me if I wasn't a poet I ask you because I do need to know it Something I never dared ask you before Do you find poetry something you abhor. You tell me you love the poems I write But get angry when I write through the night That’s the time the muse is at its best The words come easily when I’m at rest. Sweetheart all I need is to hear you say If I wasn’t a poet you’d be here to stay. Darling I have told you time after time If you wasn’t a poet you’d still be mine But writing your poetry all night long Can’t you see that lack of sleep is so wrong. Truthfully your words mean the world to me Who wouldn’t love to receive such poetry I’ve kept each poem under lock and key They’re my greatest treasures, honestly. Would I love you if you wasn’t a poet Yes I would, come here and I’ll show it.
