    Take Your Money

     How can you say you love me
    You promise to give me the world
    I never asked for anything
    Especially diamonds and pearls

    You say you'll take care of me
    I never ask you to
    Want to marry build me a home
    It means nothing if I don't love you

    I appreciate your words
    How much you say you care
    You'll be gone tomorrow
    how can you love me if your never there

    You can tell me what you want
    You can promise to give me everything
    Don't feel pity for me
    I don't need your wedding ring

    I may be alone but I promise I'll be fine
    I may not have much but I do have peace of mind
    So take your empty promises
    Flash your money for someone else
    Sorry honey I can't be bought
    Because I love myself

    True, a good open poem, money actually ruins love, I like the rhymes, and theme. And it ends very good.

    This is great, if we truly love ourselves then the next person can't hurt us . so many are lost when they get broke up in a relationship but if we know who we are and we are comfortable within ourselves then we can do nothing but....LOVE ourselves!!!!
