Lovestruck, my terracotta shoe

It’s every single thing you do

from the way you walk,

to the way you tie your shoe

I’m so, in love with you


Your words are softer

Softer, than your touch

That touch, that send shivers down my spine

Those shivers so quick, your whole back tense until you realize why

And our voice,

How makes my heart race.

Faster than an animal,

You make me run to you


Your days most happy,

to your days most blue

your smile, from a song

to your frown at the rain

I come back to you

I lost yo,u and it haunted me

without you, I’m not free.

with you, is where I want to be,

that smile so filled with glee.

My first poem written with a romance theme that I did not hate. It started out as a typical love cliche but as I was challenged to move away from the ordinary I crafted it to be relatable yet different.
