Literature and Other Love Poems

A Selection of Short Love Poems

LITERATURE

If people are books,

You are my favourite novel

Of which I know every chapter by heart;

Each word woven together perfectly,

As though you were written for me.

And if people are fiction,

Compositions of ink of which I am the author,

Then you are my favourite figment of my imagination.

//

She is liquid star-shine; the cosmos melts at the sight of her.

//

I’ll love you till my heart gives out.

//

Your smile is the very definition of light.

//

When they robbed me of my voice

And stripped me of my pen

You put light back into my head and heart

And helped me write again.

— for Ben
