my love is tenacious
once I fall in love
the feeling is not
quick to fade
it clings to my heart
and sinks its claws in
my love is tenacious
once I fall in love
it hits me in the face
like a ton of bricks
my love is strong
sometimes too strong
where I love someone
who does not
deserve my affection
tenacious: tending to keep a firm hold of something; clinging or adhering closely

If the night fell—

And the darkness tried to consume me
Would you halt this eclipse within me?
When we meet—
In the heart of the fissure
We ignite upon each other
We bleed like molten coal, an ember
We dance in an orange glow, forever
Inextinguishable, indiscriminate,
We reach for the starlight,
Chasing diamonds and the ether
Feed me oxygen as we grow brighter
I’ll be your anchor as the logs char and stumble.
Infinitely, we burn like our sun
And I’ll love you until time ceases its endless breath.
Love is a burning fire, and an endless, inextinguishable flame. We should all chase ours.
The words flow best,
In the places you won't go.
Each dip in the brain,
Places in your mind where it rains.

I can't fault you,
These things bring great pain.
But if you wish to make music,
Which I know you do,
You need to.
Before marriage
"I won't make you suffer!"

With Love

After Marriage
"I'm sorry for making you suffer..."
I try to walk the Earth,
Yet, I'm impeded.
The planet's rotation,
Keeps me pacing.
Each good memory keeps on replacing,
With something worse,
Plus a better, yet, imagined one.
Pity me,
Pity me not.
A simple game,
Is all I've got.

Will you find woe in my struggle?
Or is everything I juggle,
Part of normal life for a muggle.

Where's the magic I've heard of,
Silent midnights full of love,
A siren's seductive song.

Searching for it,
I end up crashing,
Shored upon the rocks.
