Venus

i hate you

i hate you.

i hate you for being so annoyingly beautiful

i hate that when you smile, an untamed blue flame ignites directly in the center of my stomach

i hate that when the night rises
you are the only image lurking within my nightmares

i hate the way you alter my inhibitions, and prevent my head from making rational decisions

i hate that you're on a different planet, because all I ever wanted to do was give you the world
& i would give the world.
in return for your affection,
for the feel of your warm embrace..
