Love Addict.

Love,
I never knew one word could be so heavy.
While it does make me fall occasionally under its weight,
and the scars won’t leave my blue knees,
I carry the word with the utmost pride.
There is nothing that could make me let go of this word.
This twisted, bewitching, sweet word.
I will hold this word in my tightest grasp.
Clench it, until I feel it as a part of me.
Yes, it is cruel and grievous at times.
But I continue to carry it,
for the ones who selfishly dumped it on me,
have become my entire existence.
