Love

Love

A Poem by Olivia Bant

I care too much
That's why I think too much
Overthinker
I love too much
That's why I get hurt too much
Overlover
If I don't care
It wouldn't be me
If I don't love
It wouldn't be me
I love "love"
But it seems like "love" doesn't love me
That's why I sleep
I sleep, sleep too much
Oversleeper
Endeavoring to be oblivious of "love"
Endeavorer
As I drift off, I pull a blanket of shadows over my heart, shielding it from the light of affection that keeps it restless
Sleep becomes a fortress
Where love cannot breach my walls, allowing me to rest in a safe haven of forgetfulness
But somehow as my spirit wanders in the hidden sanctuary of dreams, I still see "love"
Even in my special, sacred space I can't untangle my heart from this constant death and madness
Heartless
Maybe I should use my heart less
Overhearted
Careless
Maybe I should care less
Overcarer
"Love" doesn't love me
But "love" keeps chasing me
I wish that "love" won't be the death of me
Because they say "love" always wins
Or maybe not...
Maybe yes
Whatever
Because I don't care anymore
