Love is...

Love is...

A Poem by Death's Poet
"

This was inspired by the fact that I was getting poked in the face by my boyfriend the entire time I wrote this. Kind of a satire lol

"
Love is patient
Love is kind
Even when you drive me to losing my mind

Love does not envy
Love does not boast
Even if I do make slightly better toast

Love does not dishonor others
Love is not self seeking
Even if you speak over me while I am speaking

Love is not easily angered
Love keeps no record of wrong
Even if you change the station during my favorite song

Love delights not in Evil
Love rejoices in truth
So sorry I lied that one time in our youth

Love always protects
Love always trusts
But not since that one time you left my sandwich with crust

Love always hopes
Love always perserveres
Well I still haven't quit after all these years

Love is these things
But sadly not me...

But I still love you more than waves in the sea

Shadow there are so many delighful little amulets of love here. Your fun side has shone here greatly - I loved the "sandwiches with crust" line - such a little nitpick but says a lot about this relationship. I was saddened by the penultimate line - it muddled me up after reading all the lines before and the playfulness of them. Overall I really, really liked this.

I found a wee typo
There are one too many 'r's in perseverance.

and I felt the final line could be improved;
"But I still love you more than waves in the sea" - I think the insertion of 'there are' would help this line -
"But I still love you more than there are waves in the sea"
