I want to be scared
of how strong I feel
for you.
I want to love you
too hard.

Do you know how deep this root of
love,
lust,
must,
and desire
goes?
To the deepest of the suffocating depths
where gravity defies its purpose and
surrenders
to a greater pull.

I love you
with nothing,
and I hurt with everything.

I love you,
once and twice.
I love you,
each by each,
all in all,
entirely and absolute.
