Villanelle.

It’s at the base, it is my core.
What’s left is left inside it there.
And still I love you even more.

It says the things we can’t ignore,
And shakes and shivers through the air.
It’s at the base, it is my core.

I put my eyes down on the floor
And firm, soft arms do me impair.
And still I love you even more.

It comes and fights until we’re sure
Enough to break the final stare.
It’s at the base, it is my core.

Excuse the thoughts that out I pour,
For these lone words can’t stand as fair.
And still I love you even more.

I’ve lost the days I had before
And all I am I long to share.
It’s at the base, it is my core.
And still I love you even more.
