Flesh For Love
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.
