Lover's Words

Watch your words
Or they'll tear me apart
Watch your words
Lest they stay in my heart.

I've become the ashes in the flames
That is how I love thee
I love thee with a passion that
Makes light of the sun's intensity.

Curse the words from thine lips
That convinces the air to hide
I love thee to a height I cannot describe
For the life in my lungs has yielded and died.

I am sustained by your divine words
Exclaimed or shouted, whispered or spoken.
How do they serve you today?
Will you fix my soul or leave me broken?

But you remain the colour of my world
Without you, all is grey
So break me or hit me or kiss me tonight
I'll live on every word you say.
