love is dog-eared, and chases
rabbits like playdates. love is
an astigmatism hung from the moon.
love is written in lemon and sugar.
love makes up questions just to ask
you something. love borrows books
& love listens to mixtapes. love wears
your hat and doesn't want to take
it off. love is a secret handshake.
love is the kitchen in which you
make her soup. love is a listening
booth in 90s cinema. love is all
here in red blue green. love hides
in shoes & does the long walk.

love is the 'almost-there'.
