My Valentine Poem by Marlene Rashidi

Not a kiss nor a hug.
I give you my heart,
that you can hold on to.
it's promises are enduring,
like an unstoppable water flow.

Here.
It will blind you with my love,
like a fool's blinded by the world.

It will make your reflection
stand still, as the mirrors judge you,
I am trying to show you how much I adore you,
not for pleasure or need, but for love.

I give you my love,
its fierce of passion will inspire you,
possessive and faithfully
as we are,
for as long as we are.

Take it.
It's yours,
if you like.
its scent will last forever.
