earning my yearning

You don't know it
         But I love you.

I love you,
         But you don't know it.

Crush
    to crush
        to be crushed
               by my crush
    to be my crush
        crushed by me
            crushed by my crush
crushing on your crushed crush.

is it meaningless yet?

Who is crushing who?

Me under foot
    stuck to shoe 
            squashed
                stomped 
  lying here, flat backed.

Or is it you?
        
You who could never live up
    to the unbearable weight
        of my 
            daydreams,
                my
                    hopes,
       and my
            expectations
built up over an unbearable
        lifetime
           so heavy, 
            you are crushed?

[feel the unbearable weight of me]

are you crushed yet?

sorry so sorry
bear with me a moment
         sorry to be such a bear
 sorry to place all this on you
 you bearing the weight of my need
    only to be crushed
we're crushing each other.

    "what's that?"

oh! just the insatiable hole in me
    black hole, sucking you dry-
crushing me by
        gravitational force
                    do you like it?

[do you like it? do you like me?]

- to feel the rush of crush
    crush the soda can
        recycle and try again

sometimes metal on metal
       makes us stronger,
    i will get lighter
          you will get tougher
    and maybe we will live a love
                      uncrushed.
