Cupid Pulls Back the Bow

I have two words to say to you:
"Happy Valentine's Day!"
Sorry, I miscounted them--
I guess I'm no Hemingway

So let me think a bit
on what I want to convey,
I'm just trying to find the two
that lightly float up my airway

Search and search I must 
to find two words my love,
you make me feel so wonderful,
like a hand warm in a glove

Now after exhausting my brain
and finding the perfect two,
the best words I can say
are those ones: "I Love You!"

Oh, come on! That's still three!!
Well, "Happy Valentine's Day!"
You know you're not with a genius,
but how's my Hemingway?
