Young Love

"Love is art"
he once whispered to me.
But being,
just a naive young girl,
I never truly understood.

Young teenagers in love,
were we.
And his fiery intensity
and amazing depth
drew me in.

It's strange
how love can have
the weirdest of turns,
for some people,
like us.

For I didn't realize
that love was art,
until he showed me that,
everything can become beautiful,
if you make it into a masterpiece.
