I want to write a poem of love
A poem about two destined souls
Finding their fate and united as one
Something so beautiful to bring a tear
To the most unloving eye
So magnificent it makes you cry
A poem of butterflies
And exotic beaches
With sands of gold..
Waters of rubies
Words of pure love
But there's nothing but crumbled papers
Callused fingers
Scribbled lines
And its because I do not know love
I haven't even begun to crawl
