Your Love
Love is sitting in the
middle of a summer field,
unsure of reality
but knowing that
whatever happens next
You will be okay
Love is not being afraid
to drown in a sea
that is your eyes
That is not Your Love.
Your Love should not
be an excuse for all
the scars and bruises you
have poisoned me with.
Your Love should not
be the knife
pushed against my
heart, the tip injecting
Nightmare into my veins
Do not use
Your Love against me
Love is profound
Love is a light in
the darkness to
lead you home to someone
Your Love is the nightshade
infecting my
garden of aster
I do not want
Your Love in My Lungs
