The Lover Writer
I am the lover writer
I write the poems that unlock hearts.
I can fold my kiss-words to taste like thoughts,
Their shrill chorus is a first-date’s perfume.
Where I dip my pen I melt the ice-
My papers could handle this waltz.
And there we begin to see,
That behind locked doors,
The story of a lover writer,
Is an untold tragedy.
