A Book Mark Falls in Love with a Thesaurus

 In my writing class we were assigned to write a love poem between two inanimate objects.

Tell me what you think.


Apologies for my abrupt intrusion.

You’re paper and words, thus no contusion.

A literal mark, a figurative mark.

You are different.

 

My history, mostly history, other’s history.

No romance, never romance, okay, a singular romance.

A literal mark, a figurative mark

Incredibly different.

 

I absorb the essence of your essence.

Slowly, like philosophy, not quickly like mystery.

A literal mark, a figurative mark.

Vastly different.

 

Our love grows, develops, expands, unfolds,

Increases, progresses, improves, unfurls.

A literal mark, a figurative mark.

Is Thesaurus a family name?
