Carly Gove is a high school student from New Jersey. Her favorite things to do are reading, writing, and pestering her geometry teacher. When she grows up she hopes to be an astrophysicist or a real live published author or, better yet, some combination of the two. Mostly, she thanks you for reading her poem.
Love Note
By Carly Gove
Your breath brushes at my ear
And I find myself relaxing into your embrace.
Your comforting touch pulls me into a sense of ease,
And I nearly collapse with the exhaustion I didn’t know I felt.
And I find myself relaxing into your embrace.
Your comforting touch pulls me into a sense of ease,
And I nearly collapse with the exhaustion I didn’t know I felt.
“Thank God I have you,” I murmur.
You distract me from this life,
And I am eternally grateful.
I love you in all that you are
And all that you aren’t.
You are the reason I’m still here.
Thank you, my beautiful library.
I loved this, my sentiments exactly. Well done, Carly!
Great idea for a poem. Lots of us can relate to this type of “love.”
