Loving You

I wrote this last year, seventh grade, and the last stanza rings in my ears all the time.

You stalk up behind me and raise your arm
The dagger plunges into my heart
Quick as lightning painful as a burn
This is how love starts.

My life flows from me, so sweet
Suddenly there is nothing but you I can see
Light shines and my heart swells
Without you, I can't be

A deep thrumming beat drums within me
Drowning all rationality
All I want, no, need, is you, you to love me so
To hold me and never, ever let go

The pain fades
To a dull throbbing ache
Loving you
Is a painful mistake.
