How dare you try to cage me,
With words on this page?
Do you know what I am?
I am indefinable.
I am unreachable by your verbal hands.
No elegant words spun to catch sunlight,
Nor brusque phrases meant to lay me out straight,
Can capture all that I am on this single paper.
Write until your hand falls off,
Or your last days have been counted
And I will still not be set fully to paper.
I can not be measured with your five senses.
But still I am here, stirring inside of you.
Caged in your body, and not in your words.

- Title: I try to capture love
- Artist: Thea706
- Description: Umm... I got sick of love poems in books and by other people, so despite what the title says, it is not a love poem. It is a poem about how you can't write love poems, because you can't catch love. And just because it doesn't have some sappy rhyme doesn't mean it isn't a poem.
