Can't Write of Love

A Poem

By Emma LynnPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

How can you write a poem about love

When you yourself can't put into words

The joy and comfort someone brings you.

It's like trying to paint a picture

Without having the brushes you need

to fully capture the image.

Or describing the sun to someone

Who lives in constant shadows,

Of rain, grief and pain.

The truth is; this poem is empty-

Because no combination of letters

And no matter how long I tap my pen,

Will make the right words flow

Correctly, from mind to page

To perfectly capture

How much I love you.
