you defend a thorny weed so lovingly

you will always have your way
even if it means
defending
a thorny weed
so lovingly
when the garden may have so much more
why do you love him so much
why do you
allow so many indiscretions
is it because you know
his devotion to you
somewhere
very pure and sublime
may be thorns are only to defend himself
from
from persuasive
commas
