    I love you like......

    I love you like a kid who loves his girl,
    Until she moves away and he’s lost in his world,
    I love you like a bride who loves a dove,
    Until someone shoots it from the sky above,
    I love you like a farmer who loves the rain,
    Until he’s stuck in a flood in the middle of a hurricane,
    I love you like a man who loves to jog just for fun,
    Until he’s being chased by someone with a gun,
    I love you like a cop who loves his gun,
    Until he kills someone and realizes what he’s done,
    I love you like a fat kid who loves cake,
    Until he dies because he’s so overweight,
    I love you like a feign loves yay,
    Until he’s in pain because he didn’t score today,
    I love you like a soldier who loves his country,
    Until an I.E.D. hits his convoy and he can’t see,
    I love you like a man who loves to race his car his car,
    Until he dies from driving drunk from a bar,
    If love causes pain, and to have pain means I’m weak,
    I don’t care as long as I can love til the last word that I speak.

    taht's funny! Sorry not an emotinal person and i think love is fake! So many people use it in the wrong ways and it turns into a neverending lie... Funny and Good!

    that was sweet. and I like the part about the fat kid who loves cake.i always forget the difference between metaphor and simile but it's one of those. This was a really good poem.

    the struggle between love and pain is clearly expressed, but love wins out in the end, well written

    Poetry is what is lost in translation.
