Don't Make Me...

Location

Don’t make me say “I love you,”

Because then I’ll have to leave you.

Don’t make me say “yes”

If I’ll have to say “no.”

Don’t tell me to “stay”

If I must go.

Don’t make me smile

If I’ll have to cry.

Don’t tell me “hello”

If I’ll have to say “goodbye.”

Don’t tell me “I do”

If you won’t be true.

Don’t make me say “I love you”

Because then I’ll have to leave you.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I believe a poem to be worth a thousand pictures. You have painted an entire love story with your words. Incredible.
