when your skin blisters and bleeds
and screams out in pain and disbelief

I only love you
when the knots and tangles in your hair
twist and turn your thoughts into despair

I only love you
when your tears ignite and slowly burn
the deep sea of your tender blue eyes

I only love you
when your tongue grows swollen and green
and explodes in yellow pus and disease

I only love you
when the air between your teeth
smells of misery and bitter defeat

I only love you
when death hangs you by a thread
and insects come to eat your flesh

I will only love you
when the mere fragments of your existence
vanish into a slow dead emptiness.

I only love you

I will only love you

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
