violin strings

my dearest love, i will perform for you

everything about you is pure magic

pure music

i am in love with the way your legs move

and i am in love with your teeth

your heart is beautiful and, my god, your smile makes me weak

i am in love with you and everything you are

if you had my baby, i would worship the altar that is your hips

i will sew you back together and i will kiss your wounds

i am in love with you

i have said it many times but i will say it again

i am in love with you

you fell in love with me when i first picked up my violin

you came apart in front of me when i drew that bow across the strings

the music was made by me but it was made for you

so now, your body laid across my bed, i will create music for you

i said i love your legs, and your heart

so i will cut the tendons and muscles out of each and create a violin

your teeth will hold the string in place

and your hip bones will be my bow

that way when our child asks where mommy is

i will say, right here!

and play your favorite song, so you too can make the music
