Even Though You Hurt Me I'd Never Hurt You

Hand pressed against cheek, and so close our breaths entwine                                                

And our love is so big we could swim in it and feel the ocean spray        

Of a thousand poets who loved before we shined                                                                      

I drown in your smile                                                                                                  

Like it's a perfectly designed trap I'm caught in                                                                

And you love me like a poem, ingrained in time like a memory    

Beating like a heartline, every frown when I do something wrong                                                    

And you get mad over the littlest thing                                                                                        

But it's okay, because I know you like my favourite book                                          

Like every pain I feel, and I could read you over and over again                

And I never get tired of it, never tired of loving you.
