NUMBED TO LOVE YOU

HOW IT HAS HURT ME TO FALL FOR YOU

How can I be so numb but still feel your love?

Your thoughts grab a hold of my anticipating Depression.

So many scars you've bandaged with a single Touch

So herbal it persuades a continual rhythm of privilege

In ME.

Though we've both fallen multiple of times we still keep our heads high.

I do not promise a paradise or a happy ending

Life is a hail storm, everything gets Rough.

Reprimand me in ways of love!

I'll reciprocate desires that burn through your lungs.

How many melancholy songs have you sung?

When the stars lost their scarcity and the moon carelessly hung.

I can't divert how I feel for you

I can only hold your heart in mine while trying to kill the pain that's heavy in my Soul.

Tormented my profane thoughts in my mind

You became my only source of drug, oh the escape you gave me, had me engraving your initials onto my heart

Which had me happy filled with ecstasy.

I can't get enough, though I'm afraid it might kill me more than it empties your spirit.

Death is too envy for my soul because of how you've painted it,

So immaculate it gives vitality to other parts of me that become

ART.

Such as how I create these thoughts of you emerging from my mind to take the form of an Ideal Creation cremated to my Serenity.
