Rose Gold Love

You have taken every frown

that has attempted to take over my face

and replaced them with a rush of butterflies

only you can set off into fireworks with a simple smile.

You have taken every bad thought

and fought them to the death until all I can think about

is how well your demons play with mine

because without you I wouldn't know how to tame them.

You took every breath

That should have been my last

And filled my lungs with a love so strong,

It intoxicated my entire body

Throughout my veins.

You have taken every silent death wish

and turned them into the loudest

upbringing the world could see

With eight little characters.

You have taken my words

and morphed them from

ever so deadly formations of letters

to every beautiful sunrise the world has created,

You have taken my depression by the throat

And pinned it against the wall so hard

I trust it will never escape from your grasp.

You have taken every tear

That dares to leave my eyes

And stored them in the jar behind your heart

Labeled “Motivation for revenge” because

I know you will fight even the thoughts

that float within the air.

To see me smile once more.

You have taken my heart

and labeled it “His” because I could never find myself

with anyone as intoxicating as you.
