POEM STARTER

Submitted by Chantel Akrawi

Write a poem where an inanimate object is a metaphor for love.

your clothes

the threads of your t-shirt three sizes too large for me, ties me up in security keeps me wrapped up peacefully when i’m ready for bed and keeps you close to me when i miss you and i can’t sleep and oh, how i miss you

the boxers you hated for yourself so you gave to me, two pair rolled at the waistband so they fit me just the way you fit me
