![[ID: I’ve been thinking about love again / Those who live to have it and / those who live to give it. / Of course there are those for whom both are true, / but never in the same measure. / Those who have it to give are / like cardinals in the snow. So easy / and beautifully lit. Some / are rabbits. Hard to see / except for those who would prey upon them: / all that softness and quaking and blood. / Those who want it / cannot be satisfied. Eagle-eyed and with such talons, / any furred thing will do. So easy / to rip out a heart when it is throbbing so hard. / I wander out into the winter. / I know what I am.]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/ae3a146f196ab0b89597a676e684e966/63d18427d6709d04-f4/s1280x1920/270ee5c3f52d87cd4ca28ec8cf93ab9a0d93e99d.jpg)
