She slowly destroyed me,
beginning with love,
that faded like the sun,
at the end of the day.

Wounded and healed,
at the same time,
by loves bullet,
shot into my heart,
by her smile.

Serrated teeth,
bite ferociously,
into skin and flesh,
sharpened silver flashes.

Scarlet drops start,
followed by pumping spray,
a fountain of life,
slowly empties

Lifeless and floating,
in the barren sea,
until I bumped into,
your life ring.

Your love resuscitated,
me back to breathing and life,
healed all the damage,
sustained over time.
