i_would_love_you
emmi "I do not want to declare love on you as of midnight yesterday. I do not want to be captured nor to hold a honeyed gun at your head. I do not want to spend the rest of my life as a volunteer member of the FBI. Where did you go, who did you see, what did you do today dear? I would love you as a bird loves flight, as meat loves salt, as a dog loves chase, as water finds its own level. Or I would not love you at all." - jeanette winterson 060520

Risen Lyrics dancing around my brain

"To be human is to love"... right?

"Just 'cause I predicted this
Doesn't make it any easier to live with"

I can't change it, I can't change it.

I would love you, I would... if only I knew who you were. I would love you if only I knew that I deserved love. But the dirty little secret is that I don't.

The other day I realised that I will never know love again. Which is probably for the best - especially for anyone else.

Oh, but I would love you... if I knew who you were. If I could trust you. If I could see any future, I would wait for it. But there is none. There is no trust... and I should have known that you not trusting me was a sign I could never be able to trust you. Even in a daydream, I can't trust you.

And can I say I would love you if I can't trust you? Love is all about trust. I could never trust you, and you lie to well.

I am ready to give up.
