this is how I love you

By Saint Sentient

I want to:
crawl under your skin baby.
make your blood boil with lust. dreams
and show you what love is.
then crush you.

I want to see you cry the tears that deserve to fall.

and your heart is cold. I want to shatter it.
I'd never dream physical pain on you dear. just mental anguish
and oh. how I'd revel in it.

no. I'd never wish death on you.
I just hope someone that you love dies.

I want you to cringe in disgust when you breathe.
and I want you to fucking hurt.
dear love. I never want you to be happy.
and I'd gladly slit my wrists in front of you. if only
I'd have the pleasure of seeing your face
everytime you tried to sleep.
with that on your fragile mind.

I want you to die emotionally.
but live forever.

this is how I love you.
