I Will Not Awake Love Before It's Time

by Joyce Rogers



            You tell me you love me,
              But you cannot wait.
              You must have me now,
           Because desire is so great.

        But there is a difference between
               Desire and relief.
             Lust before commitment
             Robs love like a thief.

  I will not awake love before it's time.

            To simplify the reason...
        Our love must bloom for a season.
              And though I love you
                  More and more
           There are other things that
                 Must go afore.

       There must be a time of incubation
        And a time of trial and process.
   Therefore...I will not let your sweet words
          Sway me to unbutton my dress.

  I will not awake love before it's time.

           It is the crown of my glory
               That I must defend.
        Until the wedding ring is placed,
            You can’t move in.

              In giving and loving,
              You and I must learn,
             That the climax of our
       Love is not your deposit of sperm.

               Noooo sweetheart...
    we must not awake love before it's time.
