Been In Love
I've been in love this whole time
Not realizing that I was
I fell in love with pencils and pens
way long before I fell in love with boys
I fell in love with the paper
and the words that I could form on them
I fell in love with creating sentences
and developing paragraphs
I was the kid who never complained
when a teacher assigned in essay
I fell in love way before I hated math
and way before I knew I loved books
It was the first time I picked up a pencil
that I knew writing was something
I had a passion for
It was in this instant
that I knew what I'd been put on this earth to do
So here I am begging for love
When all this time I had already fallen
For words. I've been in love
all this time. No wonder I spend all
my time writing. It's a sign.
