Essential Love

Location

Blink...

Everytime she blinks

Pain receptors send pain

From her brain

To her heart

There lies the pain

Lies and Shame

A new man

Everyday

She can't find love to stay

 

Breathe...

She breathes so innately

But now has to think twice

Before someone takes her breath away

 

It beats...

Her heart beats with no thought

The thought of love

Makes it rush

Double thoughts

Slow it down

And cracks it's surface

 

Blink...

Every time she blinks

Pain receptors send pain

From her brain

To her heart

There lies the pain

Lies and shame

A new man

Everyday

She can't find love to stay
