Love Poem: Velvet

Velvet

We are two algorithms lacking a terminating condition
at least that’s how I see it, 
your system coding mine and mine yours,
Time and again,Till the Atlantis sunken beneath comes afloat.
Today I baked a red velvet cake,to remind me of how you tasted,
Reminding me the purpose of Lillie’s and poppies
And recalling the scent of how you smelled the first time,                                The scent of lavender candles and roses.
We are two algorithms lacking a terminating condition,
At least that’s how I see it
And today I have baked a velvet cake with a tinge of the colour of love
To impatient to wait for the church bells,
Sooo you refractor the function enshrined within,
For some re-coding is best done beneath sheets.
