I miss you like the summer
to feel the warm winds caress me and tussle my hair
And when i reach out: i grasp nothing
pass my hands through you like a memory
You are in my heart,my blood my thoughts and my flesh
It's been a long time, my nothingness to you is ever present
Yet this fact does not dissuade my poor heart
I wish i had more reason to love you
something more than just being completely enamored in you
More than loving you for your actions and colors and expressions of living
Maybe if i loved you in some superficial way
something based on shallow waters
I wouldn't be here writing my millionth poem about you
Did I love you too much?
Was what i harbor inside me just too frightening, Too scary to withstand
Am I a monster?
I'm an echo of a concept i thought you adored
Is the true reality of my being unpalatable to you?
After all this time, i am drawn to the conclusion:
that i loved you too much or too violently
I love you so softly and gently
Like soft spring showers and cloudy skies and doves feathers
I love you even though you don't love me
even if you are afraid of me
I cry as softly as i love you and as longingly as when i first met you
I wish i could hurt in some angry way
In some way that wont make me love you despite it all
Maybe i am just a monster
maybe i am some tale of to be careful of what you wish for
I want you to be with me forever
i wish you would come back, if not for a moment
I will cry tears of relief when i see you
as i sink my teeth into you
Sink my teeth through your layers of sweet skin
into your soft flesh and muscle
You would cry for different reasons
but it would be so pretty
I will drag you into my domain, crush your bones in my teeth
Devour you alive slowly painfully agonizingly lovingly
I want to lap all the blood and tears and agony you produce and consume all of your being
finally, reprieve from the heartache you have left me in
I will consume you violently and wholly
I will be satisfied for a thousand lifetimes to have you as mine forever
Within my cells my flesh my blood
Now you will be with my forever
You cannot leave ever again
I am such a monster in my adorations of you
I love you too much
