Today’s prompt: Write a poem made up of rules for something that does not yet have rules written for it.

Falling in Love

Some things don’t require rules
Setting boundaries on what’s correct.

Look. Don’t look. Look again.
Ask. Listen. Repeat.
Touch. Wait. Ask. Wait.
Look. Wait. Wonder. Know.

We make rules, only to know
when they are
broken.

Only to know.
