I'm gonna be honest, it's not often that I find myself eager to write about love in fact every time I try to write about love, my hands cramp just to show me how painful love can be sometimes my pencils break just to prove to me that every now and then, love takes a little more work than you planned I heard that love is blind so I write all my poems in braille and my poems are never actually finished because true love is endless I always believed that real love is kind of like a supermodel before she's airbrushed it's pure and imperfect just the way that God intended I'm gonna be honest, I’m not much of a love poet but if I was to wake up tomorrow morning and decide that I was gonna write about love my first poem it would be about you about how I love you the same way I learned how to ride a bike scared but reckless with no training wheels or elbow pads so my scars can tell the story of how I fell for you I'm gonna be honest I'm not much of love poet but if was I'd write how I see your face in every cloudy reflection, in every window you see I'd written a million poems hoping that somehow, maybe someway you'd jumped out of the page and be closer to me
You see I'm not much of a love poet but if I was I'd write of how you have the audacity to be beautiful even on days when everything around you is ugly I'd write about your eyelashes and how they are like violin strings that play symphonies everytime you blink If I was a love poet I'd write about how I melt in front of you like an ice sculpture everytime I hear the vibration in your voice and whenever I see your name on the caller ID my heart play hopscotch inside of my chest it climbs onto my ribs like monkey bars and I feel like a child all over again I know it's gonna sound weird but sometimes I pray that God somehow turned you back into one of my ribs just so I would never have to spent an entire day without you I swear I'm usually not a love poet but if I was to wake up tomorrow morning and decide that i was going to write about love my first poem, it would be about you
