Heartbreak, The Eye of a Hurricane, Sorbet, and Roses

What do I 

Know of love?

I know it looks like a

Long and wild road

Some places overrun

Some places clear and defined

I know it sounds like

All my favorite songs

But especially the ones 

That remind me of you

All the romanticism of a

Ballad and sadness of a

Heartbreak

Between seeing you and

Leaving again

I know it tastes and smells like

Affogatos at midnight

Paper and ink and dust

Sorbet and roses

Burning beeswax

I know it feels like a hug

And like an ocean

We could sit in

The eye of a hurricane

As long as you are near

The only thing I could drown

In would be your embrace

So what do I know

Of love still?

As much as it is a 

Fight worth fighting

It is also

The ultimate surrender

It’s all the scraping behind my eyes
