i will love you,
all of you,
and every single bit will be the part
of you i never forget to kiss
and i will make my lips a home
against the shattering skin
of your marked wrists
and i promise
i promise
i will never let you go

not when you are too afraid
to hold me not when you
shout at me to leave
not when you break my heart
i won't go

i will make my eyes a home
resting always on yours
even as the tears fall
like oceans against the shore of your
red cheeks
like sand covered in blood
from all the fish that
have come up dead
i promise i will stay alive
i will not be a fish-tear
against your rosy skin
i will not
i will not
i will not

not when you scream ****** ******
trying to get me to desert you
i won't go
because deserting you
would be deserting the home
that i gave my hands
in the soft curves of your flesh
and my fingers would get lonely
without your soft waist to
press against
and my heart would break
for it would be left without yours
for my heart will always think of us
as you + me = love
like
2 + 2 = four
