Love

by
Lucadra

If I give you my heart,
will you cut it in two?

Will you let my life's blood
run in rivulets down your arms?

If you do
it won't hurt.
My heart
has already died.

But to you
I've given my soul.
Only a flicker of life remains.

Do I dare entrust my soul to you?

If you cut it in two
I'll die in silence.

I'm not the type to make a fuss.
