Love came into your door the first time
got in, roamed around,
broke the window
then left
When you let love enter again
it cracked the walls
damaged the door
then you swore
to never let it in the third time
You fixed the wall
guarded the door
but there was another way to get in
So love was in your system once more
you chased it yourself and screamed,
“I can’t let you stay!”
but you realized that this kind of love
came not to smash the window
to crack the wall
or to break the door
It came to burst into flames
it came to burn you down
with every touch that turns into fire
you wake up every morning
afraid you might discover
that everything has turned into ashes
But then unlike those previous love affairs
it didn’t leave after the damage
the fire it brought
had the tendency of burning everything down
but he also has the tendency of watching the flames with you
the tendency of sticking around
There is no need to chase it away
because finally, this love is here to stay
