Love Like
love like blood spilled
like wine staining a white carpet
like red paint on your hardwood floor
like skin ripped and painting your jeans with your lifeforce
love like the sun gone down
love like a roller coaster who's tracks don't quite seem up to code
love like a thing of beauty withering, wilting, wasting away
love like a beautiful disaster
love like a precious gem that you keep stealing back from a persistant thief
love like a diamond that has a fatal flaw
love like the eye of a fish dangling from a hook
love like drowning on dry land
love like a joke you don't quite get because it's a joke on you
love like a god you cling to even though you no longer quite believe
