Love can sting
but it can be
a beautiful thing,
It doesn’t have to be
painful or untrue.
So, jump in the
deep end with me.
It doesn’t matter
if we can swim.
I will float with you.
Love can win
when it feels like only
hurt touches your skin,
when the dirt has been rubbed deep in
and no scrubbing will get it clean.
Lean on me and I will hold you tight.
Tracing the scars of your heart
and drawing on all the love it imparts
To paint you a message in the stars.
A message that speaks in glitter.
A swift reminder that
things can always get better.
Once you clear away
the debris and litter.
Pain can ensue
if the wrong person
passes through,
but it’s a lesson
and it doesn’t lessen
the love that had
its fledgling moments
in the sun.
It’s a treasure
don’t leave it buried
like worn old bones
beneath sun-bleached stones.
Dig it out,
hold it tight
and see
what treasure
the universe
bequeaths.
It may be messy and oblique
it may transpire
that it was never meant to be,
but the journey will
show you so much.
How wonderful you can be.
How joyous the birds can sing.
How the touch of spring buds on skin
can feel like a kiss left from the sun
after the rain has gone away.
