When You Fall In Love With A Poet Poem by Raimi Babatunde

When you fall in love with a poet
Open your heart and just smile
Their poetic lines are subtle
Therapeutic and reassuring
Yet enchanting and poisonous
Beautiful poison that makes you cringe

When you fall in love with a poet
Most times they just want you to listen
To the rants from their heart
Which is music to your soul
Beyond lustful desires and libidos
Their lines, sweater than sex

Whenever your heart is on fire
Simmer into some poetic lines
Your hormones will come alive
As you relish the beautiful poison
Hidden behind fine lines
Therein lays desires yet unmet
Like, Juliet, drink the lines
That you may climax

When you fall in love with a poet
Just don't read the lines
Eat and be ensnared
They are not your regular type
Their call, text and missives
All these just makes you wet
With wishful and lustful desires
Which often cannot be met...
