Dedicated to itsanalpacalypse because you're the person who keeps me safe when I'm in Classics and when I'm at home worrying about Classics.

Red is for the blood that beats in your heart,
The place where these feelings metaphorically start.
For truly we know it all stems from the brain,
And as your friend I'll try and take away your pain.

Orange is for the cake that you brought to my house,
When you wouldn't declare that you were my spouse.
And threats of 'the Hammer' will always be around.
And I promise I'll try not to let you down.

Yellow is for you...but not in that way,
But in the sense that you're the sunshine on my cloudy days.
And it's the little things that I'll do to cheer you up,
'As you wish', you can be my Buttercup.

Green is for the grass which onto you fall,
Together we are the most unco of all.
And for one to scrape their knee falling for you,
Is the greatest thing someone could do.

Blue is for the tears we've shed together,
For the shoulder we cry on in stormy weather.
And to laughter that comes after those tears,
I'll try and give you that comfort for many years.

Purple is for the grounds on which we were married,
The court upon which our love was first carried.
And about that proposal I wish to say no more,
Other than simply stating, 'I'm yours'.

Pink is for the colour that I'd never wear,
And for all the memories that you and I share.
And to just have said three words, no that wouldn't do.
I wrote all of this thinking, 'I love you.'
