Of Love

build me a vocabulary,
of love.
of,
a hot bath.
of,
lover’s balmy wrath.

build me a vocabulary,
of,
poetry for bad mood.
of,
beloved’s tasted food.

build me a vocabulary,
of,
linen sheets in a messy room.
of,
a young bride waiting for groom.

build me a vocabulary,
of love.
of,
sniffing beloved’s woolen glove.
a vocabulary,
pushed past love.

  1. I feel a certain kind of warmth after reading this! It's like this big hot bowl of Ramen that I look at with all my love

  2. Be sparing with the commas :) The line-breaks already give a pause. You don't need the commas there, especially after all the 'of's. Don't you think so?
