Love’s Fangirl

If you read my writing and my mind

You’d think I’ve met love.

You’d think I know it inside and out

That I’d recognize it in darkness blindfolded and hands behind my back.

That I would know it’s scent

And would know what seeks to pass for it.

You’d think I know love.

But love and I have never met.

Love and I don’t yet exist on the same plane

Love hasn’t heard of me

I’m a fangirl

Maybe love’ll sign my hand

Maybe love’ll greet my outstretched arm

Maybe love’ll single me out and hold me on stage.

Maybe love’ll turn to the other side and pass me by

Maybe love’ll make a fool of me

I talk of love like love told me it’s life story

Like I haven’t mistaken a farce for it’s face

Like I know love.

But love and I haven’t really met.

I’m a fangirl

Love’s fangirl.
