Love: Blade or Sheath?

Love: Blade or Sheath?
I have a craving
Something awful
Something damaging
Its called 'love'

The feeling of
A heartattack
Electricity blanketing my skin
Internal screams from a kiss

I long to be loved
Yet I know the blade
Sharp and painful
I am so clumsy

I wonder
Am I the blade-
Or am I the sheath?
Im not sure

I want to be kissed
To feel my heart race
My body melting
A faded mind

Instead I shatter
Pouring blood
Painting with my pain
Feeling devoid of color

Romance
Intimacy
Betrayal
Heartbreak
