You would destroy me, and I would let you

I loved you with all the ugly parts of myself.
The ones I refuse to show the world.

I loved you with angry biting kisses,
And deep scratches down your back.

I loved you with my pain,
With all of my sorrow.

I loved you with my shattered heart,
With all my jagged edges.

I loved you with my tears,
With the screaming of my soul.

I loved you with the deep shadows surrounding me.
The same ones surrounding you.

I loved you with everything I was.
All the bad, because that’s all I had.

You loved me with the same ferocity.
With the same white hot rage.

You loved me with all of your darkness.
Letting all of your demons and monsters out to play.

You loved me with all the ugly parts of yourself.
I loved you exactly how you loved me.

Our love was such a sweet tragedy.
A beautiful disaster, that’s all we could ever be.
