in love with me

eyes of judgment will not save me

a stare so deep that it burns my skin.

her stare is hot as are my tears that fall down my cheeks.

i’m falling, falling, falling too deep

into the eyes of judgment.

the devil chains me to you.

the devil blinds me with cloth.

i am only now seeing;

i see the beauty and pain in love.

there is beauty in love. the beauty of joy and the beauty of security. yet the overindulgence of feigned happiness in the love i receive is a danger. because between all the glamour of love, there is room for pain.

not all love is painful.

not all love is forever.

some is, but not all.

there is hope for those who’ve grieved. hope for those who’ve experienced the pain of love. the highs and downs of love. a never ending coaster of want. love is addictive.

love chains me to you.

love blinds me with a cloth.

i am only now seeing;

seeing the beauty and pain of love.

love needs balance. not a chain and not a cloth. a simple balance of independence and dependence because you must take the rose-tinted glasses off someday.

oh goddess of love born from the sea and is most beautiful too

bring my desires as i cry out to you

i cry for love

i cry for joy

i cry for beauty and wealth

oh deadly goddess of war born from the sea and is most beautiful too

bring my desires as i cry out to you

i cry for self-love

i cry for self-respect

mother of love and patron of sex, for those are the things that may find me success.

to love oneself and have self-respect, will bring me a life full of love, joy, beauty and wealth in a wonderful way that I have not seen quite yet.
