I Love You

I love you more than light
to me you are a road out of this evil
that emerged from within me without a warning
when I poked the unknown a bit too long a bit too intently
Without you my sanity probably would never had seen this day
it would have collapsed on itself

I love I love I love

It slurs on the tongue, the l and v are too close together
they get tangled and I falter out a word
that sounds stupid even when I say it
even though you'd think everyone is already used to the things I rattle off
my unfinished thoughts

I love you because you haven't left me so far
over and over again you demand that you can carry my tears
and your hand is warm when you press it against my skin
Because of you I have the faith to believe in change,
in the meaning of trying

You are important I care for you I love you

Could you say it any worse, but still I have to
because how else would you know, thoughts alone aren't enough
But how could I avoid the clichès, go around the dangers
so that you would take my words as truth and not as just a new trick
to keep you close to me

I love you the wrong way and too much, I can't lie
I don't know if you'll forgive it even though you say so
I don't know can an evil this human be forgiven
when I can't even regret it, I can only be guilty
and you probably don't want any more "I'm sorry" phrases

I love you because you are everything, the center of gravity
and I don't see light from the desperation with any other way
than by trusting you

I love I love I love

There, I said it
here I am and cannot change

    You manage to pinpoint this feeling so well... I completely recognize myself in it. Well done <3
