unScrabbled LoveA text, a phone call, a bunch of flowers You complete me like a piece in a game. Your love falls like the nicest of showers Surrounds me, watches me, keeping me sane.
Like the Q square in a game of scrabble Or a tricky crossword clue, you are a One off, unique, a bitch to unravel. But I'd not have it any other way.
Impossibly perfect yet completely Flawed. You taste, you touch, you sense and you see. Real life is never so boxed and neatly Put, as i hope this sonnet will be(come).
That you stuck around and loved me for me Has a hand in showing, h unScrabbled Love

Leaving the mindless hum of the bar she wandered aimlessly out of the quad, and headed towards Alexander Square. Directionless, maybe, but with the knowledge that with a campus of this size and shape, to keep walking would eventually bring you back to your starting point. The beginning of a circle, she thought, paradoxically. Just like tonight. You try, you fail and you try again. A circle which tonight, hopefully, would finally be broken. As she strolled, almost happily up the spine she spotted a map. Glancing to Toer- the re-write :O
