love is wrapped up
in tears that can’t stop falling
or the heart which falls apart
broken & breaking
so that it can learn about itself
by putting the pieces back together
&
the voice scratches
the ears as it moans
or softly whimpers
to keep it from screaming
&
love really fucks with you
but that’s what we ask it to do
&
there’s no going back
only hopping up
&
waiting for the blood to dry
&
then you look up
&
there’s something there
besides this raw emotion
bleeding from me
&
our love is holy
&
our love is true
is deep
&
is
to the heart of it
me & you
&
our love outstands
my desperate tears
&
our love outstands
your erection
&
our love outstands
what all the other people say
&
our love outstands
the time apart
&
our love outstands
reason & passion & belief
so i guess there’s no use in my crying over it
i
guess there’s no use in my crying over it
i
guess there’s no use in my crying over it
