My Love


My Love,

Not to be broken,

Not to be bruised,

Do not run it over,

Do not drop it.

My Love,

Stronger than that diesel,

Larger than the ocean,

Never ending.

My Love,

You must think you can play with my love.

            It has been, 

Broken,

Loved,

Beaten,

Bruised.

I am not a basketball.

My Love,

Calls out,

Louder,

    Louder,

           Louder.

My Love,

I am

    Breaking.

My Love, 

     Stop

          This

                Game.

My Love.
