seeping devotion

Love love love
All my problems spawn from it
My troubles, pains and fears
Love is the denominator
To love a dominator
Is to weep without tears
“You do it to yourself”
Blah blah.. shudder
A fleeting glance
A playful smirk
And my heart begins to flutter
All it takes is to pave the cracks
The fracture thats been there all my life
In my core, pumping out poisoned blood
Blood I can’t let with a knife
Why choose to love still?
You ask
Why should I try?
Because love is who I am
Im just lone without it
It exudes from the wounds in my soul
And starts batting my eyes

The poem "seeping devotion" explores the theme of love and its complexities. The repetition of "love love love" at the beginning creates a strong emphasis on the concept, setting the tone for the rest of the poem. The imagery of problems, troubles, pains, and fears stemming from love is vivid and relatable, capturing the idea of love as both a source of joy and suffering.

The use of metaphors such as "To love a dominator is to weep without tears" and "pumping out poisoned blood" adds depth to the poem, conveying the conflicting emotions and internal struggles associated with love. The line "Why choose to love still? Why should I try?" raises thought-provoking questions about the nature of love and its significance in the speaker's life.
