i think it was the kind of love
that alternates heartbeats
and steadies breathing.
i think it was the kind of love
that yearns and wants and
pleads for some kind of cure.
i think it was the kind of love
that soothes the heart and soul,
but still destroys your mind.
i think it was the kind of love
that scratches and gouges and
spits on you when you're down.
i think it was the kind of love
that smiles at you and holds
you close, at the end of the day.
i think it was the kind of love
that changes you and hurts
but leaves you so breathless.

i think it was the kind of love
