... (ix)

the most dangerous aspect of love
being: that it robs us of sense
that it renders us unable
to bear reflection
come now, you lovers!--knuckles dripping
come now, over what you have shattered
shards glisten in your soles.
come! you vast and shambling company
--who knows how far we might walk?

for your sake--
I tore out my eyes.

hmm it has both pain and I daresay 'drama' which is an inherent part of love and lovers.. the last two lines.. mindblowing ..
