Love Hurts, and So Does the Way You Look Tonight

Words Actually

Jul 5, 2015

895

1 分鐘

I see your softly rising chest in the wavering glow

of a dying flame.

This aggressive anonymity, this ugly wallpaper in a room built for escapism

Absorbs all the words spoken into the void. They melt,

indistinct snowflakes on the walls.

My painful secret is

I am in love with you.

But I’m not in the business of saying true things.

What we know and what the movies don’t dare say

Is that love is just a shout into the void, and oblivion is inevitable.

But sometimes the brittle skyline of our dreams

Feel real as a crisp cool morning or

the scathing indifference of straight whiskey down the throat.

I’ve always wondered,

Where do lovers go after the credits roll?

And when is the moment that ecstasy gives way to grief,

that this is merely the beginning

of the end?

I know well that I will never be enough in this lifetime

To fill the fractures, and I am too cynical to try for

The fissured wishes of hidden goodbyes.

But I know how to hurt

For the constant choices of yesterday’s nights,

For the thunderstorm you’ve jammed close so hard, how to mourn

For all the words torn apart.

You’ve pointed out my ribcage is a tattered enclosure for

The places that taught me how to love.

My heart is broken, my lips are wounds and

Your hands are incense burning my skin,

I am palms held open, praying for the way

You anoint the caverns and precipices of my body,

Redeeming, salvaging,

Here, right here between my aching lungs and your breathy heart-------------

--------------------------Here marks the X where we are clearly lost.
