VENTURA BLVD

Stars play so pretty in your hair
As you lose your gravity to my heart
Planets spin lazily in the contours of your eyes
If I remove my face mask, will we be able to 
breathe together? And if we are pulled apart would the
Universe fade out?

On the moon I promise you the earth and mean it.
You laugh.
I am very much in love until very much in love
Becomes a poem, very much in love, very much in
love,
Very much in love. Our love is the poem, every
line, every word. You laugh I love, I remember when
I held the door for you. I remember when I offered
you my seat. I remember when you took it. The
seat was my poem, my poem to you; better than
a carving on a tree. The seat ran on petrol, drove
around town, a mobile poem. My poem just drove
down Ventura Blvd. Since we broke up it searches
for other poems. i wish it luck.

Ah this is so beautiful and so creative how youv expressed your love and also nostalgia that flows as you reminisce the love that you shared and how every little thing you did from your heart selflessly is like a poem a verse from your heart! It feels like a poem from your soul , so sincere and soulful! A fave this is!
