love is not enough


love is enough, more than enough it engulfs every part of me engulfs every part of you even when it leaves you blue two parts of one whole with matching tattoos

something no one could ever undo or subdue
your words see to my every whim
something Achilles and Patroclus too are incapable of outdoing
you, I would choose over the luscious chocolate choux

love is enough, but more than enough?
what is enough?
not your words or your bluffs
maybe my cuffed heart wrapped in your muff
or my pride that lies on the floor of the undersea

what about your locked door that I try to knock on?
While you lay there knocked out, keeping me locked out
Devouring precious Mary Jane as I grow precarious
must you break through my pericardium so painfully?
it engulfs every part of me, this ache along with the ague

is love really enough?
or was I just there for too long?
on the worn-out bus
till I started thinking it was a must
and ignoring the dust

was it really love?
or were they just too good? your linguistics
was it just too lush?
were they just too smooth? your long liable fingers

the stupid question lingers
because you were more than just a late-night binger
but we ignored the danger,
we couldn't be strangers

the bloody sword drips two shades of red
the sponge I hold absorbs their abhorred gaze
I wished I could get out of this scarlet haze
the lord ignored my latent wish

blotted out my blatant lies
I said love is enough and how it engulfs,
and it does engulf my soul
but I can't seem to stop the blood that drips

I swear, I didn't mean to lie
I never meant to lie
this is just not how I thought I'd die
this is just not how I thought you'd die

limp in my arms because love wasn't enough
while I fight to stay alive because love wasn't enough
because we couldn't be as tough as our times
now all that's left is to sit here and write some rhymes
and kiss your blue lips
as I wait for Osiris to come and punish my crimes
