Love Crime...

Love Crime...

If love is a crime,
then I am guilty as charged,
and will most definitely do the time,
being with you is absolutely sublime,

I will do 10 to life by your side,
and enjoy every minute of this love ride,

Time flies when having fun,
so you and I will never have to run,
because when we're together it's always
fun in the sun and we've just begun,

I will only love you even more as time goes on,
I may even write you a song that tells everyone
how much we belong together in any kind of weather,
and how I will never allow this tie to be severed,

So if my love for you is a crime,
then grab the cuffs and lock me up,
this love is not a bluff, I understand that times
will get rough but I love you and if you look into
my baby blues you will know I'm telling the truth,

If love is a crime,
I'm guilty as charged,
and ready to serve my time...

ok for starters i will take it stanza by stanza!
the first is enchanting and catchy because it rhymes.
for the overall poem, it is a great lovers poem and we all know all human
race has been guilty of the same crime at some point in time. so you hit the point where every reader connects and understands.

nice write

This is such a sweet piece. It shows a dedication to loving a woman as opposed to feeling obligated. Awesome job as always!

[Jamestown]

If you feel obligated to love the one your with that's just sad,
Thanks for checking it out and b-blessed!

Yes it is, but you know that many people will stay with a person because they wish to "spare their feelings," or have "too many things tied up," financially or otherwise.

[Jamestown]

Yep there are reasons people stay, but for myself I pray I'm never in that
situation, I have met people who are in the situation you speak of and they
are miserable:( Thanks again...

[Mari K]

You're most welcome. God Bless

Love is not a crime when it is this romantic...that's for sure! The rhyming in this is wonderful...with this rhythm it reads like a song! Great one. Lydi**
