Chapter 37: For the love of poetry

I have fallen in love
with a poet
The way his words
sound in the wind
and how it
caresses me.
The way his words
soothe the wounds
I had forgotten about.

I have fallen in love
with a poet
The way her words
get entangled in my thoughts.
And I feel scented.
Every breath I take
I smell her words
and it makes me giddy.

I have fallen in love
with a poet
The way every consonant
speaks to every fiber in my being.
It fills me with a love that was lost and just found.
Like something was meant to be.

Oh I have fallen in love
with you,
And this poem is witness to
A blessing that is forever thine
The gift that is rarely mine
Oh what is to become of me ?
