Love is safety

[Mydriasis]

Safety, is a necessity,
and,
I know I'm safer at the bottom of lake eerie,
I know I'm safer engulfed in flames,
better off gambling my achievements on games,
than visiting a planet with no wings.
Cover myself in pollen and invite bee-stings.

Better off making toast in the shower,
than living in a place where love has no power.

in the love i have expererienced, it comes and goes, but never comes when you want, and when you want it most, your husband embarasses you by trying to take a glimpse at your best friends friends tahh tahhs...or tells you how nice of an ass the waitress has infront of you and your 3 beautifull daughters.

fucker.

This was off the top of my head so don't expect a miracle from it. But the message is pretty much this,

if your parents didn't have love for you, how did you eat?
if the president doesn't love his nation, how will the outcome be?
if your friends have no love for you, what do they want from you?

edit -
Turmaline it sounds like your husband has some sexual tendancies. It doesn't imply that he doesn't love you, it could but it doesn't necessarily mean that. He's probably just desensitized, but how on earth could I know that. The match stick may burn away, but the great thing about it is, you can always strike up another match and have it again(not find another guy but find more things about each other). If I had never seen it I wouldn't believe it. But I feel for you

Didn't ruin a thing. Poetry is all about interpretation and discussion and sharing.
