Lovebug

By M. Faulkner

Loving you is like this
You know so many things about bugs
And I love that for you
And I hate bugs
And you love me still
And don't expect me
To have the same interests,
Knowledge, desire
Knowing I will love you
Through the insects
And you will love me
When I cry at a bumblebee
Who, as you've mentioned,
Do not sting.
