If you could hold my fluttering heart, yours tears would grow a bunch of tomatoes.
Nothing would be the same,
Those tears would dry up quickly and you would die of a drought,
But nothing can stop me.

I would take those tomatoes and mash them up,
But I would love them because
I would bathe in them.
And eat them.










And splurge.
Haha.
Sweet.










Juicy.
Ah!
Acid stings in the eye!

I wondered what depth love can get to until I thought of an inspiration. A person who can't claim that love that overwhelms their entire being, blacking out morals and peace. This is what I imagined as I wrote this poem.
