I love you,
Those words still seem hard to say.
They linger on the tip of my tongue,
But fail to exit the confines of my mouth,
Bars of enamel containing my love.

Thoughts of you used to settle in the dark,
Dusted off to be ready for the next night,
But now your thoughts are in constant use,
Running throughout my head in daylight.

These days I find myself trying my best,
But my words fail to make sense,
And your handshakes stain my palms,
Sweaty and damp in your presence.

When I first met you,
I hated you as a false pretense,
But now I find it harder to lie,
When one day I stopped thinking "Would you like this?"
And started thinking "Would you like me?"

1st stanza line 5 >>
its just damn poetic
the rhythm is decent with a few rhyming words here and there ||speaking as someone who is generally quite skeptical of free verses||
also for the writers block I personally just try to find new words and twist them in a way
like in my poem https://discord.com/channels/944439929734312006/1116010032014827671 I wanted to come up with something interesting then I googled a few words went through the synonyms and came across remanence
I had even seen this word before so technically I also improved my vocabulary by a word
idk why but I've seen (irl) that there's this stigma around googling to find new words and synonyms and stuff like that
personally I like this one quote against the stigma
"It's not cheating if you create a true masterpiece" 🤌 ✨
