A Chaos. A Love. A Destruction.
Love & ____ & ____
Love is love
Divided by worth
Divided by empathy
Divided by lingering thoughts of lust
Spanning the moment we met to the moment
Your hand grasped the suitcase
And even now I’d have you stretched out on the bed sheets
Committed to memory
Love is love
Plus the weight we both brought
Plus the eyeballs of a million men and women
Plus your arrogance and my pride
Plus your pre-conceived notions
That fight would have never happened if you just
Saw the world in a different light
It took you two years to realize, a twenty-four months too late
Way after you caved
A chaos. A love. A destruction.
We would be perfect together now if now wasn’t after the fact
After you spun in someone else’s world for a trip around the sun
Only to now realize
And love is love
Minus the bitterness
Minus the mistakes we can glance over and forget
Minus the flaws too easy to ignore
Love is love
Without the you
But it still has me
You were just two years too late to realize
I used to think it was never enough
Through all the diamonds I stayed the rough
Tell me what you needed, but I kept seeking
I don't know what you see in me but I'll believe it
When I give you my best and still fall short
Too broken and worn
So much to hide when the curtain is drawn
You hold onto me with all I have
And still you love me despite my past
Despite my present, and all that I lack
You build me up so I know I'm not nothing
Willing and running, coming to you
And never going back
You've been warned
And still, I am yours
Love is love...
