Love That Cuts and Heals

Love That Cuts and Heals

Your words could scar the heavens,

Your breath could calm a storm,

I lived inside your balance,

Between your fire and rain.

You never promised easy,

You never carried calm,

Yet something in your chaos,

Always called me home.

My heart learned how to bend,

It learned both pain and joy,

The line between the two,

Turned razor-thin with time.

Some days you gave me everything,

Some days you drifted far,

I held on through the trembling,

Because your love still burned.

You marked me without warning,

You soothed me without thought,

The ache you left inside me,

Became a place I knew.

Your shadow still moves through me,

Your flame still lights my steps,

I walk the line you gave me,

With scars that still feel warm.

I choose this love regardless,

Of wounds that stay or fade,

For love that cuts and heals,

Is love that never dies.
