Then you could have loved me
Like I love you
With all your introversion
With all that would murmur
Faithful and endless
I wish you could have loved me like flights of fantasy
Worldless and drowned in the insignificant darkness of dreams
I wish we bonded around impure darkness
and tombs that birth wild flowers and blades
I wish you could have just loved me a little
I would have resisted all your women and notions of love
I would have rinsed all that's raised and decomposed
I would have smothered all those wounded nights and their shadows in closets unknown
I would have wandered in ignorance
To die of wizened love
If only you loved me
Like I love you
We could have played at coming and going
Till the end
