Write a short love poem. The catch is that the first sentence must have seven words, and the following sentences should countdown until you have only one word for the last sentence. Basically 7 words, then 6, then 5, etc.
Love comes in numbers.

Mi Amore!

Who knew that you would be mine?

Right after we went to dine.

My heart beat so fast.

You are my first.

And my last.

Mi Amore!

Sempre.

Lost in You

I want to touch your soft rain

love your smile, feel your heart

breathe fresh air of you

love you beyond reason

walk into you

with eyes

open.

Stargazing

Stars we steal from the night sky

shine brighter reflected in your eyes.

In that moment I know;

never let you go.

And that is,

my dear,

love.

Ann

Wanted to die until i saw you

With one look, love is true

Was lonely, but can't deny

I'm a lucky guy

My lovely Ann

I'm Dan

Imagination’s Junkyard

I love my brain when it works.

That's not often by the way,

Oftentimes my mind just hurts.

Creativity's really hard. Like-

...love that scars;

Imagination's junkyard;

SPAGHETTI

Love

A single word escapes these parted lips

and filters thru your ardent fingertips

cascading ever near to linger

upon your receptive ear

trembling with emotion

before falling

in...

Dawn

I don't want to see you now,

Your starry silhouette fading into morning

Enveloped in the sun's rays,

Which illuminate your unravelling

Darkness; love, don't

wake me

up.

The Colors of Love

The world is monotonous, black and white,

Filled with lonely people wandering, searching,

Until a hand lifts them,

Into a colorful world,

Where happiness is,

It's called,

Love.

We Were...

Thick as thieves and twice as charming.

Bonnie and Clyde, without the dying,

Immortalized by wit and attraction.

Lessened by moments apart.

Regardless of distractions,

Never resting.

Lawless.

skin

pulling teeth to say goodbye to skin

goosebumps on mahogany, tears on porcelain

pores soaking the other's decay

sheets swallow unspoken connection

limbs and lips

move slowly

apart
