Is love really a three letter word?

The question is, are you ready for the inevitable?
The eventual flaws and misteps of a relationship that can't be fixed,
Because you don't really want to.
We take two steps and three steps forward
In exhange for 6 steps back.
For two more concrete steps to fight until someone steps back and falls to the floor
And on the floor is, unfortunately, usually
Me, crawling back.
This territory so unfamiliar outside of this,
but in this I'm just that
Crawling
Until the edge, then I hang on for dear you
Like you, are my life.
Like all of this wrong could someday be right.
I'm so tired of playing Bellona, goddess of war,
Pretending to be this warrior of love, for you, my god,
My love.
In my eyes, you are a supreme being
So angellic when you rest
So enthusiastic when you are, just. being. you.
And for this alone, I thank you.
I ask of you to see me for my worth,
Because I'll fight for you, and with you.
Until the end of time
Or atleast until the end of each day with you.
