If Love could speak

 

Press play before you read. Salute.

(A lone voice whispers)


Yes I, from whence all gloriously emotionally notorious pain


And sexual heartbreaking anxiety but soul-rousing feelings stems


Like the precious aroma of an exquisite expensive perfume


Invading like an insidious thief


Any particular room


I'll invite you  

If you dare welcome me in


To see the world through new crystalline lens


As your soul finally matures


As it's put through my exceptionally complicated


But sophisticated extraordinary fires


To be eventually willingly or unwillingly cleansed
