Hold me in this moment Let all I feel be love Let this moment last forever. Long live love
I still worship you But there's a sickness I've acquired My mind turns against me. Shield me.
I am hollow inside My organs lay scattered There is rotting all around me Save me
There is darkness in my being I must protect you I must protect myself Help me
With you I can be better Quickly! Turn away from the world. I fear I am crumbling Stay with me
I am weak and corrupt You are bright You still love me Heal me
I fear what this pain would do to you I was exposed and corrupted I need to be accepted Love me
I don't want to fail Life only makes sense with you Daring not to think of when it ends, Long live love
Ekphrasis on Max Ernst's Long Live Love shown here: http://en.wahooart.com/Art.nsf/O/8XYK74/$File/Max-Ernst-Long-Live-Love-S.JPG
This painting is very impactful to me and helps me to voice some very true and deep things for me in my relationship. This poem also changes order/structure every time I write it.
