my favourite poem ever

I love this poem! It was the reading at my best mates wedding a couple of years ago, so unfortunately I can't have it as a reading at my own wedding. Sounds best read by a small girl called Shirley with a Northern irish accent!

Id forgotton about it and came across it again today. So here it is :)
(yes Im going soft in the head!)

Love Is...

Love is...
Love is feeling cold in the back of vans
Love is a fanclub with only two fans
Love is walking holding paintstained hands
Love is.
Love is fish and chips on winter nights
Love is blankets full of strange delights
Love is when you don't put out the light
Love is
Love is the presents in Christmas shops
Love is when you're feeling Top of the Pops
Love is what happens when the music stops
Love is
Love is white panties lying all forlorn
Love is pink nightdresses still slightly warm
Love is when you have to leave at dawn
Love is
Love is you and love is me
Love is prison and love is free
Love's what's there when you are away from me
Love is...
