being a poet in love means writing down every single emotion you’ve ever felt on to paper
it means turning simple things about a person into deep details that only you would notice
such as when the one you love simply smiles at you that could turn into “his mouth turned upward into a small smile upon his cheeks making my stomach erupt into tiny butterflies”
it means writing every single interaction you’ve had with that person and turning it into something poetic and beautiful even if it’s as simple as a smile
it means letting your heart do the writing for you as the emotions pour out of your mind
but it also means heartbreak lots and lots of heartbreak having your heartbroken even helps poets write about being in love
it’s hard being a poet in love because we can never find someone who truly wants to be written about
