i remember the day we fell in love.
i went to your house with a lavish bouquet, and explained to you the language of flowers.
i picked pink magnolias, because they reminded me of how much you blush.

i selected the final flower to be cobalt blue tiger lilies, because they echoed our everlasting love.
i gave you the flowers, and you handed me back one of the tiger lilies, as an echo in return.
