You love
With all your being
With every inch of your body
From your head where you dream of them
To your feet where you run after them in the rain
And tell them that you'll always love them and that they are family.
You love with every inch of what you have left , body and mind
With your fingers that are so fragile and cold and broken
With your heart and all it's cavernous holes
Some you can't explain
And some you can
But won't.
Love with every crevice in the hollow of your chest where your heart should be
Where the knives have carved 'bad place , do not enter , do not go here'
Into your pale stomach that you can't stand to see on a bad day
Love with the lights on and you head held high.
With your favourite shirt on underneath
Your work shirt that you think is ugly
And you've got flowers in your soul
Because flowers mean hope
And that's all you have left
Why?
Because you lover loves you
And they don't ever want to let you go
And that letter you found,on your mantle piece
Isn't fake and it's really how they feel for you all the time
Because the ring your found in the sock drawer isn't misplaced
And the cake in the fridge is for celebration and good time , not for your sister.
Take me to the place in your hollow bones where only the sunlight reaches
