Be My Everyday Valentine

You toiled searching but my arms are your final awaiting couch
your fantasy and me are twin and your heart can vouch.

Your struggle with existence comes in two sides of which,
I’ll implant rest in between to make your life a sandwich.

From observation to acquaintance, my soul was on complete traction
this is the first time my heart and mind aren’t in different factions.

Your sheltered feelings and anxieties to me sound like a bong
I’ll bring the moon to your dwelling for nothing to feel wrong.

I’ll make the colours of your happiness put white into obsession
creating a new reality for the old to go into regression.

We will go nine stars for romance to hang on a chimney
erotic evolution, our currency, more valuable than money.

 Our passion will grow fat from income so multifaceted
my pride, only for your protection as all obstacles be matcheted.

You’ll be in much laughter that each will leave a trace
our love will be rich that envy will be donated a lace.

For every hundred requests you make, I can meet ninety nine and half
while others devour, I’ll be a caring Lion to the vulnerable calf.

Our union’s picture by the gods will have more than one dimple
the dynamics of our satisfaction will be easy and simple.

The waiting numbers of your affection, I’ll punch and dial
we will pass through the moments to finally walk down the aisle.
