Another one of those days

Wall punch your way

A friend asked me today

What love meant to me

And what I had to say

             About it

I drew a blank

And I have to thank you

For getting out of it-

What does love mean to me

Is it the thing that has

Caused me countless

Hours     of      misery

Heart ache and pain

         Eyes dribbling

Wall    punch    your    way

Through another day of 

love

       Or is it the other

Chest 

             constricting

Heart melting through your

     Fingertips 

                kind of way

Love is like an IV drip

Keeping me alive another day

        I like to think the latter

At least that is what keeps me

               Coming back 

       for more
