When it comes to love
There are many forms of it
How do you show it
Well I'll give little
Trinkets and let you know what
Made me think of you
It could be simple
Like the moon and the time you
Took a pic of it
How you'd know how to
Take a better picture of
It than I could and
I remember small
Details of your interests
So I researched it
Learned the best I could
So I could make a card with
A corny pun to
Let you know that I
Listen to all your rants and
Use that knowledge to
Put a smile on
Your face further down the line
I want to learn your
Favorite foods and I
May not be a cook but I'll
Learn how to make it
Try not to be a
Hard critic I'm sensitive
But I did my best
And I'd cherish you
From your toes to your head and
What lies inside you
I don't need gifts for
You to keep me around or
Fancy dates to stay
Not to say that I
Don't appreciate them but
I value our time
We have together
May it be in a park or
Steep hiking trail
And I'll get you to
Do face masks with me and wear
Matching outfits and
Get silly couple
Bracelets and long distance apps
For when you're not here
Hope that's not too much
To ask of you but they make
Me smile feel loved
And so do flowers
Dark chocolate's and small picnics
Maybe I'll keep a
Colorful scrunchy
On the stick shift of your truck
It'll keep you safe
I'll keep a photo
Of us in my phone case so
So I won't forget you
You'll find my hair strands
In the oddest of places
You won't forget me
And I can't help it
My hair is just fine and it
Easily flies off
I hope I make you
Feel like you're flying to a
Greater purpose and
That is how I love
And the many forms that make
Me feel like I'm loved
