Not A Question of Heart

I wish I could be as perfect
as you find me in your heart,
wish I could love you with
perfect passion
balanced with cool logic,
and utter calm.
But the greedy love junkie
who eats my soul
when she can't find
a heart to savor
would never permit
you to escape
without bearing
the mark of her
small white teeth.
