LOVE IS NOVEL

by Quietly Versed   Jan 14, 2009


We too, are literate,
We pose our-self by candlelight,
Filtered flickers of character read out of context.

Placed on the shelf of Amnesty,
Poised prone to those who may read us.
Our stories tainted by the hands of another.

Collectively we forge some epic novel,
Your manuscript brings a quaint friendship.
The oil from your skin marks the page of comprehension.
You read me as if to write the next chapter.

And you, bound in irresistible Silhouette.
I cannot put you down,
Your text is addictive.

I subscribe to this foreign emotion,
As I turn down this wrinkled parchment,
The place I find while inside of you,
My favorite page of life.

    Wow certainly tis is gonna be one of my favourite poem. I think that your idea was very original using a novel as a metaphor of your life & frienship.The vocabs that you used was really superb too, as it enhances the story line that you want to portray. It certainly is a beautifully poem and it was a delightful to read.Keep up the great writting

    Excellent Job
    5/5 from me
