Why Did I Fall in Love with You?
I know I probably don’t cross your mind much anymore, but I hope someday you see something that reminds you of me and the things we use to spend hours talking about at night and then your throat gets tight and your heart skips a beat and you finally miss me back.
I didn't fall in love
for convenience,
or for body...
Maybe God
told me allow
my heart to be taken,
wrapped in metal
and salt.
Salting my wounds,
and licking my scars,
maybe I fell in love
while I was painting
the stars and caressing
the moon...
Just maybe I opened
my eyes to beauty
in the form of wolf...
I can't howl your name
on my tongue or caress
it in the beating of my gums.
I fell in love with you
because deep down I felt
it, as though I found
my missing piece
to my heart covered puzzle.
Yet, love is pain, arguments
and discussions with breaks
sitting in the back of the unconscious...
I fell in love because
I could feel my walls breaking
down, my heart opening
itself from ice covered arteries.
Just maybe I fell in love,
without a pinpoint
to give or show in my eyes.
Loving is hard with its ups
and downs but I fell in love
with you because I felt
something in my heart the day
I saw you again.
I fell in love with wounds
and scars while my walls
started crashing down
but I'm still in love.
