There is no science for holding all of your trauma inside of me, but let me try, my love. Slip your shaky hands into mine, let your broken soul sit in my body. I’ll etch your scarred memories in my mind, and carry your tragic thoughts with me. There will always be room in me for you, for us. Let me be okay for both of us.
There is no science for holding all of your chaos inside of me, but let me try, my love. Aeolus gifted Odysseus the four winds in a bag, I’ll hold your tornadoes inside of my lungs. Every organ in me will be a container for your despair. You weeping goddess. Patron saint of broken souls. Let me be a temple for your sadness.
There is no science for holding all of your dreams inside of me, but let me try, my love. Let your desires drip slowly into my veins. Pumped around by my heart, your fantasies will reside in my cells. Cut me, and I will bleed your wishes and hopes. I will carry your future within my bones. Let me be your happily ever after.
There is no science for holding all of you inside of me, but let me try, my love. See the world through my eyes and kiss it through my lips. & two shall become one body, I’ll carry your mortality inside of me. We have no more time or space, and we are so infallibly human. Let my body be your coffin and your final resting place.
There is no science for loving you, but let me try, my love.

I love this so much, Victory. I’ve been trying to put together this dark love poem for a while but never got the strength. This sort of inspired me to finish it?. This is a truly lovely poem❤️❤️
