Two Intangibles Can't Be Had

I love you in all the dangerous ways
I keep my heart in shape
For your love
As it turns out I'm a beggar for it
I will exchange for it

All this time you were serious
Now it's obvious
It grows, black rose
And it's falling from your hand

He says to me, "Loneliness is universal, so be happy when you cry"
And yet I crave to be alone
Still I cant be sure

At dusk
I let the light out in exhales
I let the camera fall to the floor
Mirror gawking, I'm staring at your face
The things that brought you hear
And I want you more
