Damn You
by Quinlan L GibsonFor making me fall in love
with you first.
Leaving me to hold my breath
Until it pulls you under
and drowns you in it too.
For inserting feelings
into my secure heart.
Blindsiding me
with what I knew in a second
what that enigma called love.
For the unwanted knowledge
I now carry on the tip
of my mountain of fears
that if this ends
it will crush me
Fault be mine or not.
For raising the curtain
on my naked stage
that has waited to host
my future in acts.
Damn you,
for focusing the blurry
reasons I've been waiting for "you".
And the satisfaction
of why it will be worth it. 12/04/2001 Posted on 09/20/2002
