Valentine Poem by Simon Stevens

I’m not getting you a necklace this Valentine’s.

Instead I’ll buy you a rope.
I’ll knot it in a noose.
Nice and tight. No way it’s coming loose.
No second chance, no second hope.

I’ll wrap up some superglue.
Create a bond nice and tight.
Seal you in all day and night.
So secure, you haven’t got a clue.

Open it! It’s a carving knife.
I’ll cut you and make you bleed.
Me and you is all I need.
Forever, you have been my wife.

You won’t need a card today
This should teach you not to stray.
