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
