Stupidly in love

He dumped me like literally 2 days after I wrote this lollll, but I like the poem so screw him, yanno? Hope you enjoy :D

I think

If there’s nothing more perfect in this world

Than a poem

Then you must be poetry

And you’re made of 

Coffee bittersweet

and the aftertaste of energy drinks

And rebellion for the sake of staying alive

And call it death of the author

But wherever you’ve come from 

My limerick, my love

Matters as much as the ink used to color

You stupidly pretty green-brown eyes

And as long as we’re talking about dead authors

I’ll bet you my heart

That every silly little letter you wrote me 

Has made them turn over in their graves

Laughter wheezing in their salt-forsaken bones

Because my sonnet, my sweetheart

You are a kind of perfect that isn't confessed but admitted

By the candle-light of memory 

And the love any of so-called-author 

Either written or proclaimed 

Has never been

(Will never be)

As perfect as 

Our kind of poetry

Author's Note

Sucks big time for me, but let me know what you think!

Nicely worded and good imagery here. Sorry about the downside. But of course, he's not Adam. There'll be another when the time is right.
