SING ABOUT LOVE

1 0 0
                                    

I run away from the love in novels,

Because there is only one love I want,

There is only one I know,

Only one I understand.


It seeks a home and establishes it.

It is a roof that shelters you from the storm,

A boat on the river that takes and holds you,

A hot air balloon to see the mountains up close.


Without it, I can do nothing.

If you do not have it, 

what is the point of having the world?

What can you do with a second?


I wish you never leave, my gift,

Like the love that writes you this letter,

That lives, yet not nearly as perfect.
