Man or Bear

Am I in danger? 
I look around at your kind
Almost all is the same 
As a man or a bear 
They say both bring danger
Some with the coldest hearts
Some with the warmest hearts 
man or bear?
You bring me both 
You bring me where I can feel the most love 
Your kiss
Your touch  
Your eyes on mine
Giving me warmth and joy
Having our secrets, our moments into one
Soft skin with a tender touch
An act of love
Only with you
But when the mist covers our eyes
The dangers feel more evident 
As you’re holding me, I can’t breathe 
Our kiss becomes venom
Savage, howling, resentful 
Your eyes turn black 
Your soft skin feels rough 
Every day is the same question 
Man or a bear
Man or a bear.
man or a bear?
I can’t decide 
Why can’t you be one? 
My decision would be easier 
My thoughts of you would stop 
I no longer feel one thing 
You are a mix of emotions
It’s you I want to be with 
You are the one I want 
Yet I’m left broken
Even though you hurt me as a bear 
Even though you loved me as a man 
I see the love of my life in your arms 
As you leave me 
You come and go as you please 
You have never made me hate you 
At least, not for long 
Our experiences filled with loss, but we both benefit in the end
This is why I can never answer
