Section Me

Section my veins
And plant the seeds of your love
Deep in my flesh

Let it creep
Along the pipelines

Let it swim
In the river of life

Section my brains
And paint your image
Along the sinews of grey

Mould them
Into the statue of love

Etch yourself
In the engine of reason

Section my pains
And sprinkle the salt of sugar
Make a lemonade of your love

Give me a drink
Of the poisoned nectar
Let my parched lips kiss
The chalice of doom

Open my skull
And irrigate my brains
Let my veins
Drain

Sow the seeds of my pains
Bury them in me

Let the needle flow
And pierce its way
Let it unblock
Unclog the holes
Let my veins breathe

Section me
And free me

Free me of my blood
Free me of my thoughts
Carve open my soul
Take out my bowels

Rinse my inner parts in acid
Give it an alkaline bath
Purify it with corrosive
Explode the insanity of my heart

But give me…

The roots of your love tingle too much

Very unique and interesting! You make love sound so pleasant and physically uncomfortable at the same time :-P I really enjoyed reading this poem.

I like the way you used the language. The poem was direct and the like the pace and the strength of each set of lines.
Let the needle flow
"And pierce its way
Let it unblock
Unclog the holes
Let my veins breathe"
Thank you for a excellent poem.

Love is a right royal pain in the...wherever, isn't it? :) But there's a saying: "Don't hate love!" You've captured that sentiment well in this piece.

This is beautiful. You are quite talented.

Interesting poem
I enjoyed watching you be
disected little by little.
That love must be strong
to tingle more than
alkaline acid bath.
Nice poem!

[Richielee]

fantastic lines throughout

You fell and fell hard, huh? Their's a needy, desperate quality to it that shows love and the need to be loved back... and has honestly inspired me. Good job =)
