Love does not grow on trees.
It grows inside us, and as we grow,
It does with us.
But if it did, would you hang there,
On a tree of hearts,
Red and shining?
So I could reach up and pick you,
Cut you into pieces:
not to destroy you,
but to consume you,
To make you a part of myself?
or perhaps into a pie,
so others could share you?
they might get something out of it.
I know I have.
