Her

She has

the kind of face

to write poetry about.


To spill words

like ink

on page after page,

searching for a way

to describe it.


And yet,

there are never

enough words.


Their meaning,

feels meaningless.


I could travel

to the furthest reaches

of every continent.


Dive

to the deepest depths

of the seven seas,

or soar

to dizzying heights

above the tallest trees.


And yet,

the world would

feel dull,

in comparison

to her.


Even in

a thousand lifetimes,

hard as I try,

I wouldn't ever

find a single sight

more beautiful

than her face,

nor a string of words

capable of capturing

that beauty.


Because

nothing

has ever

or will ever be

more beautiful

to me,

than her.

So teach me how to plug the gap before it kills me.

All The Words Are Yours

My favourite poet wrote a book appropriately titled All The Words Are Yours. I used to believe it defined love, at its purest. But recently, I’ve come to accept I was wrong. There is never enough words. They don't do you justice. I search and seek the words powerful enough to define and describe my love. But their meaning is meaningless. All the words are yours; and yet, they're not enough. You make language, limited and insignificant. A failure of linguistics that pales in comparison to the magnificence of you. Give me more words. More letters, more vowels, more meaning and more feeling. So that one day I can find a way to say these words are yours, with love…
