how do you hold onto me
how am i your rock if my edges can be so rough they bite into your skin
you give me so much love it pours over the sides
and i take what i need and the rest is wasted
but you still keep pouring
my heart is like a stomach in the way it expands
slowly
i am learning to love
you have shown me that there are people in this world that will touch you so deep
people who will love you knowing that there is light for them at the end
understanding that there is dirt and dust and boulders that could be in the way
blindly loving
with no promises
