?If love was a candy

The flavor would be bitter sweet
If love was a color

It would be pink with a blue-grey
If love was a cookie


It would be hard on the outside



yet soft and warm on the inside
If love came without pain








It would no longer be love






It would be obsession tied with a smooth lust ribbon
So without pain there is no love









Like without rain there are no rainbows
Pain is the trial love puts us through












To prove us worthy of love
If love was yet a blanket







It would be warm but tattered and torn.
If love was an illness






I would have it











because simply






You infected me.
