My name is Heather Mirassou and I come from America’s Oldest Winemaking Family, I have been writing poetry since I was twelve years old. My favorite poet at the time was Leo Buscaglia, who writes about love. I sent him a letter and a few of my poems and he wrote back rewarding me with a signed book of poetry and an inspirational letter. He said I was a NATURAL POET and I should continue writing poetry and learn and practice as much as I could. I will always remember his influence on my writing and my will to follow in his footsteps. The symbolic interpretation of my last name, Mirassou is: > Mirror of the soul >One who reflects within >The watcher of light >A woman who sees truth beneath the surface
Love Is Impossible to Ignore- by Heather Mirassou

Love Is Impossible to Ignore- by Heather Mirassou


Love is a dim motel sign
flickering vacancy/no vacancy,
never quite telling the truth.

It's a locked briefcase
with your name etched inside
the code changes every time
you think you've cracked it.

Love is a subway map
with one forbidden line,
the route you take anyway
because it hums like fate.

It's a pair of borrowed keys
that fit doors you didn't know
wanted to open.

Love is a neon confession
buzzing at midnight,
too bright, too loud
and impossible to ignore.
