Eternal Love

Heart beats
Slapped in the face
I love you

Heart beats
Stomach punched
I love you

Heart beats
Bones broken
I love you

Heart beats
Skinned alive
I love you

Heart beats
Eviscerated
I love you

Heart beats
Flesh filleted
I love you

Heart beats
Chest cavity cracked
I love you

Heart beats
Watch the pumping blood
I love you

Heart beats
Ventricles quiver and still
You whisper, “I love you”
