Courting Death
Loving you is illegal.
For you steal my breath away
Make me lie even to myself
Crush my ideals in a snap
Inspite of which, I couldn’t stop!
Loving you is unhealthy.
You turn my knees to jelly
Crush my dispositions to mush
Fill my dreams with creamfilled longings
When can I stop such sinful cravings?
Loving you is lethal.
You pierce my conscience like nobody can
Twist a knife deep in my emotions
Puts a bullet through my foolproof confidence
Til everything just don’t make sense.
Loving you is illogical.
You drive me to my wit’s end
Laugh crazily at your bad jokes
Makes me mindless with useless worry
You are a menace to my sanity.
Loving you is illegal
Unhealthy and lethal
Detrimental, illogical
Yet I’ve never felt more alive
Than when I started loving you.
