the Love I've Known

I want edges in my jaw like ice

And I want you to cut yourself upon them

I want words in my mouth like venom

And I want you to poison yourself on my kiss

I want light in my eyes like sunshine

And I want you to blind yourself looking into them

I want to stand over you like a mountain

And I want you to be crushed in the avalanche

I want to hold your face gently in my hands

And I want you to taste blood at the flick of my wrists

I want to be with you

And I want you to be with me

But I don't know how to be in love
