    Sometimes love 
    is really just a (g)love
    comfort for the cold

   ( This is like saying
    that ain't amour,
    it's just (g)lamour.)

    Sometimes you wear it
    Sometimes it fits
    Sometimes it doesn't

    All garments 
    get old
    tattered

    But when it is just that: L-O-V-E
    (With no hidden letter
    Preceding the matter)

    Then it is like butter
    Melting
    In the frying pan

    Or the sharp pain
    of a babe
    biting on tender nipples

    Yes, it is like Milk
    Warm
    And Nourishing

    Or the hot unshed Pulsing Blood
    of a dear Son
    held down in Sacrifice

    The Sultan of the Hearts
    Mixes a specific potent mix
    For each specific Lover

    Love is sweet and bitter wine
    poison
    potion
    
    Part Pain
    Part Pleasure
    Always to treasure.
