I see no flaws in your face,
nor in the way your shadow paints my skin,
The way your hands clasp my cheeks
and your tongue slips between my lips
I see no flaws
no flaws at all
on how the way you love me
yet,
Why is the world so base?
why is it so insensitive?
why is it so selfish?

Love is limitless
who are they to bound it?
claim it,
selfishly devour it for themselves
without giving a fair share to our hearts?
Why is the world so clueless
about the fact
that I need you
and that this need is not simply a call of the flesh
but rather a desire to have you forever in my life?
to have snuggling beside me
when the nights turn so cold to bear.
to have you cooking for me
and me singing for you
to have you by my side
drawing your perfect architecture,
against the light and shade.

are we really contradiction?
‘cuz you are my addiction
I don’t want to give you up
I will never give you up
