Love
Make a poem about love. It can be any form of love(Romantic, sexual, familial, self-love, etc...). Use any conventions and style you want. Just be creative. I would love to see what you all come up with.
dear
wouldn't I love to pour my heart out--
dear you,
the chosen one,
you're my breath of fresh air...
entangling stories or
parallel lines, twisted once.
I can breathe without you,
I've been doing it this whole time.
none of it's written in ink, you see;
it's all smeared like it's accidental,
and was it? when we can't see the stars?
how I wish for you to look at me,
you--any of you--with a glittery gaze.
tell me it's meant to be?
dear me,
dear you,
what I mean is don't leave it unsaid.
I'll make you fall, watch me,
tumbling over and over and over,
or do you just look upside down
because I am?
wouldn't I like to be the one
entangled,
wouldn't I like to be dear
or you
and all I've written here is that
--simply--
I love you the way that I do.
