Love Is Hell Poem by Mishack O Madubandlela

I love you like I have never loved before
I love you like you are the only one I have to love
Loving you is a choice, a choice I am and always will be proud of
I chose to love you for all that you possess
All your qualities and insecurities make me obsessed

The pain I feel when I think about you and you aren't there.
Every time I look up at the stars, their sparkle and
shine makes me wish
That I was looking at your eyes

When we met, I thought I was meeting another girl,
a girl to be friends with
I never thought it would get this far
I've made mistakes before, but my biggest mistake
was to think that I never could fall,
Like falling for you, falling in love
Love is hell, but I'd rather fight demons with you than fly with angels without you
I don't know if you'll ever love me the way I love you

I know that we just met, but I love the way you are
You intrigue and make me want to break down all your walls and have you all
I admit it, I'm crazy and weird,
Just a bit more now that I met you
You may not find me sometimes
I'm preoccupied and trying to find the line that defines if you're more than a friend...
I hope this won't end

Love is hell, it's dangerous
I'm on a tight rope to your heart, I hope I won't fall
Or maybe you'll be there to catch me if I fall
How is it that it's only now that I realize all the
feelings I have for you but I didn't know I had?
"How can you steal something from someone who
has nothing to steal? "
They say that but they don't know that it's possible
You stole it, without touching it, and now I'm left here, I lay awake at night and wonder if you wonder…

I'm not perfect, nobody is, and I don't try to be…
But if you want the best, you just have to see the good in me
I could be more than your third shoulder,
If you give me a chance, I could be your everyday memory
