How To: Romance Your Insecure Girlfriend Poem by Persephone Springs

'I want to whisk you away'
Hold her hand like it's the only thing anchoring you to this planet
Let her wear your jacket (she likes the way it smells)
Tell her she's beautiful
Not hot.
Not sexy.
Lot's of girls love themselves from the shoulders on down
Don't make the same mistake
Serenade her with corny declarations of love
'I wish I lived in your socks, so I could be with you every step of the way'
When life gets hard for her
'Do you have a band-aid? Because I think I scraped my knee falling in love with you'
When believing you love her gets hard for her
'You should be a baker, because your buns are perfect'
When looking in the mirror gets hard for her
'Let's play Titanic: You be the iceberg, and I'll go down'
When you get hard for her
Kiss her on the forehead (but only if you're tall enough to do so easily)
Worship her personality in front of friends
Worship her mind in front of parents
Worship her body in private
Worship her body in public when no one's looking
Never let her go to bed without hearing I love you
Tie her shoe for her
Wrap your arms around her when she cries
Don't be her Prince Charming
Don't be her Knight in Shining Armor
Be the WHOLE DAMN KINGDOM
Be her best-friend, boyfriend, and bed-buddy
Don't be a baby: let her take pictures of you
Remember- every touch makes her heart race
Make her heart race
Then whisk her away
