Love is About You

Love is a stalker.

He will creep around your house and watch you as you sleep.

Yet you can never catch him doing so.

You just feel a pair of eyes glued to you at all times.

He is a meticulous one that one.

Love will take notes of everything that makes up you.

He will take pictures of your bare back through closed windows and study the way you look.

Never missing a single detail.

Love will break into your house without you knowing.

However it wouldn’t steal from you.

It will look at what you are missing and fill that void.

It’ll fill you up until you’re head deep in your toilet at 2 a.m.

It’s important you always make room for it.

Could never have enough of it.

Could never be sick of it.

As sickening as it is when you realize that Love is the one keeping you up at night.

Holding a cold knife against your neck as you breathe longingly.

Yet he’s the one who would rub your back as you’re throwing up that pain.
