Love like a DOG. I love like a DOG. Relentlessly, Gently, and truly. I don't, I CAN'T see your flaws. In my eyes, you are absolute perfection incarnate. You can spit at me, kick me, hurt me, And with an unrequited smile and passion, I'll still crawl back to you. I bare my teeth at others. I bite hard. And I bark loudly. But you, oh, for you, I soften my gaze and lay my head in your hands. I allow myself a moment of respite to feel your warmth, though I fear it will turn stone cold. I fear that you will become nothing more than a memory. I fear that you will see what I truly am. I fear that you will see through my veil of bravery, And into my tattered being. No matter how I hide, however, I know it is inevitable. I know that you will become disgusted with me. And with my love on your hands, my heart in your soul, you will cast me away. And I will crumble and rot. And even then, even in my deepest desperation, I will still call YOUR name. I WILL get attached to you too much, I'm annoying when I don't mean to be and I say and do things without a thought in my head. I love like a DOG.
