Strange Poetry

Love Is

Being in love is not the same thing as loving. When you fall in love, it is discovering the ocean after years of puddle jumping.

Love is the puddle after a long rain.
Love wears a pentagram necklace and a long skirt.
Love is too early and too late.
In more ways than one.

Love sings to every song on the radio but will stop if you turn down the volume because she's self conscious about her voice.

Love hates hot sauce but if you put it on her chicken she'll say it's amazing and ask what you put on it, lie to her and laugh at how scared she is to try new things.

Saturday morning cartoons make love laugh and she may suddenly stop because love thinks her laugh is annoying.

Love will wake up in the middle of the night for some juice but will be too scared to get out of the bed. You should just hug her tight and tell her you believe in the boogeyman so you both feel ridiculous.

Love will tell you how cute you are no matter how you look just because she thought you were having a bad day.

Love likes making playlists for long car rides because she wants to play nothing but happy songs no matter how embarrassed she is to sing along on Taylor Swift. Sing with her.

Love will want to cover herself every time you try to look at her. Just smile and tell her she is beautiful because she is.

Love will cry when she feels you don't want to dance with her but won't make you because she wants you to have fun too.

Don't run away. Yes Love is broken but she will break herself more if it would make you smile.

Love was different the first time around.
Love used her short hair to hide her face.
Love used to yell cause she didn't have the heart to cry.
Love is terrified of the world around her.

But Love found you again and love still accepts you.
Love is different the next time around

Love has songs that remind Love of someone else; songs that Love didn't like to listen to anymore but than again so did I.
Love is broken from another but yet again so was I.
