I Want To Love
I want to love fiercely like a female dog with it's pups
Protective and unwilling to share
I wanna love possessively like a baby with its mother
Wrapped around her like wool
I wanna love like a sociopath
It's you and only you I see
I wanna love like the heat to the sun
There's no one without the other

I've tasted love, a little drop
But I want to get drenched in it's storm
Chaotic and catastrophically beautifully
I wanna watch a being burn solely with my name on their tongue
Make me their world and revolve around this truly yours

I want a love that cuts deep into the cells of my core
Leaving no piece of me unturned
A love that sinks in my blood and
Forms a part of my soul
A bond that holds in-spite of what life may throw
A love that'll let me be bold in my weakness
And sated in my strength
A love that's mine and forever to own

I wanna be loved
The way the earth loves seeds
Molding and folding until the fruit appears
Ashes to ashes then glory to glory
I wanna be loved
The way a wolf does it's mate
Be the only one who holds that space
No matter the distance and state
You exist indelibly to hold me

I want a love that's so hot
It'll sear us both
Passion in stringent waves
Electricity riding hard within our veins
Our fingertips touch and it's a lightning storm
I want that love that makes you feels like you can have it all

I want to be loved gently
Like the wind whispers on the field
Softly, like the sound of the violin strings
Carefully, like a new born kin
Vulnerable, but working towards strength irrevocable
I want that love that leaves you speechless
Poetic nonsense be damned
The type that has you sputtering for the little things done for you
That kinda love that sees my needs before I speak
A love that asserts itself to preempt my feels
A love that feels like I can almost touch it
So palpable it's a brush across my skin

I want the love that is beyond sensual but deeply spiritual
Like I can feel your spirit's hand in mine
A love that imprints my mind
Stating she's mine and only mine
Not forcefully
But in deeds that speak louder than mere words could
I want that soft and kind love
That I can tell for sure due to the sweet hurt in my finger curves
That love that sounds like folklore;
'I can't live without you'
'You're the very air I breathe'
'If you die, I'll die too'
'You're mine'
'You only need ask, there's nothing I wouldn't do for you'
'I love you so much it's driving me insane'
'The vacant seat in my heart bears your name'
'I would sacrifice forever if it meant I'd have you for a day'
'The very beat of my heart sings your name'

I could go on and on
But alas I guess all I'm trying to hear you say is
I love you even though you're insane.
