I Love You So Much

By Jarrod Wetzel-Brown

I Love You So Much

It hurts. It hurts me

To be around you,

Watching Mayflies

Die in each other’s arms

Near the lakeside.

To see you shimmer

Makes me shiver,

As water wets the sun in silver,

Because I cannot imagine

Life without you,

Which hurts more;

The cracks in the car window,

Where rain puddles in the handle…

I have to go,

To let go,

Knowing all I ever wanted

Was to stay.
