Poetry: On love

by Taylor Valentine

I stumbled into a winter's sleep

I fell asleep grinding my teeth

The night passed and the moon fell

I woke up with your heart on my sleeve

There's beauty in my mind

There's so much I want to say

You are what gives me life

I don't know why I fight for you this way

I'm bleeding your love

There's something going in my chest

You make me live again

A mixture of feelings, leaving unrest

Nothing can stop us

I feel enlightened

We just won't fail

I feel frightened

I feel like it's not enough

Those three words will never do

No matter how much I say it

I love you, I love you

Please don't tell me that I'm asleep

Because I don't want to know

If I can't have your heart

Then I don't want to go

Just trust in me, take my hands

And we'll run so far away

To where the lost boys live

And we'll go where lovers play
