Work Text:
For you, I would bleed roses.
I would sing with a saccharine smile,
Dripping with my insecurities.
For you, I will allow brambles and thorns
To grow in my throat and choke me.
I will pluck the weeds from my ears,
And listen only to you dear.
For when you touch me without consequence,
I feel lightning settle itself in my chest
Like a thunderous roar, from a mighty lion.
Words cannot describe my affection.
There are not enough sonnets or poems,
I cannot speak enough soliloquy.
I fear you.
I love you.
