if our love were grammar, it would have been a phrase:

an incomplete thought
that made no sense
that had potential to be something
but left on it's own
all the same

if our love were grammar, it would have been a run-on sentence:

had no stops and no starts and just go and go until it tired itself out

if our love were grammar, it would have been in italics:

because we were so preoccupied
with trying to decipher
what this and that meant to you and me
but never really understanding
what they truly signified

if our love were grammar, it would have been in parentheses:

because our words were stuck
(in some sort of limbo)
where expressing it
and reading it was (optional)
(just like that)

if our love were grammar, it would have been a period wrongly placed

like. one. at. the. end.
of. every. word.
because. it. felt. like.
we. could. end.
at. any. time.
