Challenge
Not love
As Valentine's day approaches, I have a challenge for you: write a poem that suggests love, but does not quite reach it. do not write about the idea of love; make the reader experience it and snatch it away. Leave me feeling not heartbroken, not smiling, but somewhere in between. Must have the line "not love" in there somewhere. And as always, tag me in the comments @Dream.
I Not Love You
In the center of me,
There’s you.
There’s your name and your hair
And your fingertips.
And your perfect eyes.
In the center of me, there’s you,
But in the center of you, there’s nothing.
In the center of you, what you have is Not Love.
You fake it with three words,
When really you should have been saying
“I Not Love You.”
