Are poets the only romantics?

by @simpleton

I should have married a poet Who knows nothing of grand gestures But would pause on a moment of grazed fingertips And could tell you just how the air tasted at that moment in time The poet would know how to read the things that aren't written And hear the things that aren't said Perhaps then a heart will be so touched That it longs no more for tender days
