Because I love you
You can hurt me
Because we share a meal
You can betray me
Hand me over to the Pharisees
Take my living force, my love
And nail it to a cross
Because I know you
And you know me
We can disappoint each other
Treat each other
As objects
As tools
As a means to an endBecause love wounds
And heals
And makes us care
About each otherWhen indifference would be so much easier
I feel alone
Because I love you
Because I miss you
And want you with me always
The animal that once roamed wild at night
Wants a home, a fire, a family, a kiss
And an embrace that tells me
"Perfect is resting in your arms alone."
Some days I see only the nails
I follow the trail of blood
And see how we only seem to wound each other
Why did you kill me?
Make me your prize?
Give me another name
To make your life easier?
I am.
You are my beloved daughter.
Take the risk.
Love me.
