I love you
like my dog that had to be put down
when he tore into my arm.
Like my old favorite song
that I listened to over and over
until the melody staled.
The lyrics, I now forget.
Like snowfall in spring
after a long, cold winter
after a short, hot summer.
Like that one dog movie,
the one that brought me to tears
and got me so worked up
that I could never watch it again.
Like a bitter medicine
that I had to swallow,
the one that made me better,
the one I hope to never drink again.
