Love
So Intangible
So Real
Would I still choose to Love you if I had to sacrifice parts of my body?
So quick to give our hearts to each other,
Would speed still rule if the cost was Flesh?
The price list:
Puppy Love - a sliver of skin
First Love - a finger or a hand
Grand Love - a leg or an arm
Unrequited Love - an eye or a tongue
Would you still dive in?
The wound obvious
The Scar A Warning
An Invitation
A Beacon
A Lesson
In the end,
At the very least
We tell ourselves there was "A Lesson"
Don't pretend...
We'd all gladly walk around with parts missing
We already do.

Reflected, in your eyes, I see...
Imperfections
Blemishes
Misery
Pain
Is that how you see me?
A taTteREd tappestry
A misfit
Dis-connected
From my motivations and inspirations
Lonely
Afraid
Sad;
These all seem to me to be reflected, you see, in what you see that I see reflected in me.
