Hurt Hours
I woke up to you today
In the morning I realised
That I have loved you all night
Through the hours and the minutes and the seconds
You have held me in you
Against you
So close
So hard
So intimate
That it was hard recognising me for myself
I have known sublimations
Like myself fusing in you
In ions
Bit by bit by bit
There is nothing of you that you can take from me that will not have me in it
Nothing that you want to leave behind which won't have you
You pretend you are hurting me
You pretend you are pushing me away
But no
You know
The hurt is yours, just as it is mine
You or I
Can't even separate us
In pain
In hurt
In hate
And you think you can rip us off in love?
I will always love you.
And only you.
If you have been my life.
You can be what comes after.
Next time
In a happier place
In a different life
Just be mine
Don't let yourself take you away from me.
Yours ever hopelessly.
