Love's claws and sperm whale vomit

love poem, what is true love
Love poetry by Nuit, Love claws

Love Poetry

You know you have been caught by the love’s claws when:

You are a black widow spider’s mate
And you enter her net willingly even though
Your mum, TV, and neighbors, have warned you not to

You are a fish that follows the loved one into the fisherman net
Praying your head hits the hull next to her's
So you can gasp your last breath together

You search the world for the sperm whale vomit
So that you can put it into the essential oils
He could smell - within the scents of your skin

You listen to the radio as though it is for the first time
and hear your story in every single song
That sings of love or pain or longing

You clearly feel the wound bleeding
But testosterone and oxytocin in the blood are raising
And your heart's beat hits the record when he stands next to you

When God, chance, Faith, circumstances, Universe, all say ‘no’
And you ignore it, listening to his voice on the other end

With a shiver that causes a storm on the other side of Atlantis
