I want love to 

Come directly for me

Say it will never leave me 

And be honest when it speaks 

I want love to lay always beside me 

And Take my body 

My Mind and soul

I want love to murder the person I used to be 

Show me the mirror and help me 

I’ll not let love make me lose myself anymore 

I want love to come to me and claim me

I want love to 

Open my ears and eyes to see

I want love to help me evolve into a better me 

I want love to take me 

All of me 

I want love to come to me 

And never ever leave 

I want love to 

Bang resounding gongs and declare me loudly from the rooftops 

And cling to my side 

I want love to walk with me 

I want love to 

Heal my wounds and tell me it is safe 

Even when my past self thinks it not 

I want love to envelop me in safety and make me want to say kind words to my spirit 

I want love to laugh when I tell corny jokes 

I want love to 

Tell me when I fuck up and not give up 

And remain 

and remain

and remain

and stay

and not give up on me when I’m a raging bitch

I won’t let love make me lose myself 

I won’t let love make me make stupid choices 

I want love to swallow me whole 

I want love to wrap me

I want love to caress me 

I want love to remember my favorite pizza shop 

I want love to breathe into my spirit 

I want love to extinguish the demons from my past,

the echoes in my head that scream with fear

I want love to make me evolve 

I won’t let love cloud my vision 

I want love to cling and never let me go 

I want love murder my old self 

I want love to be a safe place even when I scream from fear 

I want love to not give up when I am afraid it is like the others 

I want love to remember I only heard shouting, screaming words of anger

I want love to remember I am a scared little girl 

I want love to be patient with me 

I want love to remember it owns me 

I won’t let love discard me 

I want love to fight my demons Or 

Hand me the gun with a smile 

I want love to stay when I am afraid and screaming 

I want love to remember all I know is fear and rage 

I want love to remember I am but a scared little girl most of the time 

I want love to sit sit with me and accept me just the way I am 

I’ll not let love corupt  me 

I want love to 

Match me evil for evil 

Laughing the whole time 

I want love to hold my hand when we walk thru hell 

I want life to rescue me and tell me I rescued me

I want love to 

Sit with my madness 

I want love to be my Papa Legba and I,

it’s Mama Brigitte

I won’t let love corrupt me
