When you left me
Ripped apart
You must not
See blood
For there to be wounds
They shed the same
Poison and fear
death by words
Kills slow
I’d rather you twist the knife
See me gasp
Give up half the soul I carry
so you may carry me completely
If you survive
Something of the other
Does too
And you can finally embrace me
Without fear
The love never left
As you said it
Repeated it
Again
And you pummeled me with sweet affection
As you tore at my soul
Once more
Before the waves came
when the ocean envied
The salt
I shed
Yet there are not enough tears
To mourn this death
And you return
To revive my soul
You pick up each piece
With such tenderness and ease
As I watch you
put me back together
As if you never took me apart
And I let you
For I have begged for it
In a thousand dreams
This revival
Of you
And
Me
