Because I Love You

I am leaving.

That black circle of nothing

in my mind. 

I must go.

They bring me back, ask,

why can't I concentrate? 

Because...

I don't know

Just because.

And here I am.

Lost.

Where am I?

In the black. 

I think

I must leave.

I don't wanna be here,

there's only,

me, myself, and I.

So I come.

They say they missed me,

Love me.

What is love?

I ask,

who am I?

They say my name.

No, that's not who I am, lies.

But I love you. 

What is love?

And all I see is you.

In my mind,

I am lost.

The forever circle of nothingness.

But you come, 

and you save me.

Just like always.

Tell me,

who are you.

Now I'm with you. 

You ask where I have gone.

Home.

Where it is safe.

Where the nothingness takes over, 

it smothers everything,

and only nothing can get to you. 

And you ask why I came back.

I answer your question.

Not swiftly, suddenly.

But slowly, carefully.

Like sand through an hourglass,

afraid that the particles will get lost in my words.

.Because I love you.
