    segmented love

    all the things I love about you most
    i keep safely
    in different parts of me
    so that a) I find them more often;
    b) if a thief came in the night
    it’s unlikely they’d steal all of them; and because c)
    love has no insurance policy.

    Haha, this is (and I hate the word but I'll use it) cute. Excellent title to go along with the structure. I wouldn't change a thing.
    Poets are always taking the weather so personally. They're always sticking their emotions in things that have no emotions.

    Normally I really enjoy your expanded metaphorical pieces, and though I did like the structure of this one (the ABC), I didn't quite connect with it. different parts implied limbs for me! A thief typically wouldn't steal that, so I'm guessing there is some metaphor that I'm not catching on to. love has no insurance policy seemed a bit like the same reason as B, though I'm probably still just not catching on...
