Wearing my ♥ on your sleeve

Write me a poem about what kind of love you are capable of giving. Whether it's whole or broken, tainted or new, sweet or bitter, whatever, I want to know about it.

Rules:

1. No erotica.

2. Keep the profanity to a minimum, please. Only use it if you really can't find another way to say what you need to.

3. Don't write as if you were IMing or texting someone. It can really get annoying.

4. I will accept any type of poetry, including Dirty Pretty.

Good luck in the contest! Thank you for entering!
