Love is every broken halo

Streams of rose flowing out of the seams; this is my love

To watch myself erupt in the chaos of the night, following the widow of the damned

Love is every unspoken word

Watching one die and seeing the other live; it's a hollow tree cascading tides of bark; love is my mother

Ripping pages out of bandaids only to paint more stories of the unforgiven

Love is every last laugh

Pools of pity collect raindrops in the sand and words of selflessness rot in the glens

Bare arms covered in false pretenses the absurdity; love is my mom's fiance

Love is every aspect of truth

Contagious kisses intertwined with embraces of a decision that changes two lifes

To withhold a lost cardinal with chains made up of silken clouds and dew from leafs; love is my kitten

Love is every new scar

With legs of thorn and beds covered in nails, softly the rain hisses

With every new tear collected new dots are connected forming a pattern; love is my friend

Love is every severed vein

Strings that link souls and rocks to the earth are strung with cords of copper and petals of flowers; love is my brother

Each ray of sun reflects across time on iridescent shards of glass pulling towards a hidden chest

Love is every last goodbye

Houses of grey decayed into ashes that was once a flame

Her shallow breath forever sealed in a vault; love is my grandmother
