loving you


wears me thin


to the bone 


to the marrow


 


loving you hurts me


but in an unpredictable, easygoing way


 


loving you


is unacceptable and acceptable


at the same time

excellent pieces, teej~


love this part:


 


We embrace the change
But won't pick it up
the sordid thing it is  (awesome line !!!!!!) 
Lovely nonetheless. 


 


and your words about the dichotomy of love.... couldn't be truer~sigh.

Love is the blunder


The blinder of humanity,


That masks all the insanity and lack of preparation.


It covers our bruises.


 


Once it is ripped away the cuts fester,


The new layer of skin atop gone.


The dripping fluids(some more solid than others) create 


An overwhelming pain. 


 


A pain that is the heart of our world,


A pain that seeks an answer,


A pain that we long to cover up.


Not because we are ashamed, but because 


It makes us shake and undulate.


A pain that evokes all emotions at once


A pain that reminds the world


Why we need love.

At the last supper the bread soaked the wine


Our brains swelled twice their size.


Sadly, we believed this made us better, smarter, more saved.


The gray matter, drunk with hypocrisy, created dogma.


Dogma grew neurologically through the spine to the tail bone through the legs to plant deep roots in the ground. 


Stubborn roots that stick out of the ground, like fuzzy brown curls of hair.


The locks of the Messiah some say, I think otherwise.

Apathy I seek. 


Never finding a true middle point


Peace-loving but realistic,


Absurd but concrete.


 


How we can fantasize about one's death


and celebrate it confuses me,


Astonishes me, and scares me.


While we come together to celebrate the death of one and the alienation of another.
