I remember the day
When we first met
You in denims and flimsy tops
Smiling from distance
Asking with your eyes
To come and talk with you
We talked, we laughed
Time sped by, the universe vanished
You asked me to walk you home
We teased, we laughed all the way
At the door, you looked at me
Twirling your hair, you asked
Hmmm, do you want to come in
I wanted to say, I have work to do
But instead I said, I want you
The passion that followed
Sparked the fire of heavens
With your eyes, you spoke to me
With your lips, you discovered me
With your embrace, you fueled me
The weeks and months since then
Brought us closer, ever closer
Our heart entwined, our souls mated
As if all this was meant to be
I just can’t get enough of you
Instead of music, I want to hear you speak
Instead of paintings, I want to watch you sleep
Your glistening eyes are my looking glass
Your looks are my only library
Your lips an altar, where I want to offer
As many kisses as sea has sand
My love
with you
every moment, a valentine
