In Spring,
the fauna has awakened.
Nature has bloomed
and in our garden,
I find myself embracing you.
You tease me with pecks on my cheek
while I whisper soft words of romance in to your ear.
All the while,
I gently pluck a hibiscus
and place it in your hair
Our hearts have been defrosted
after the harsh winter's solstice
but I don't want to think about the yesterdays
where we said things that hurt
and wore smiles that were fake.
You took your photographs
and I drew my pictures.
Preserving the memory
for us to remember
The way I push you on a swing
makes me realize,
the love rekindled
and a moment like this,
could only come during Spring.
The Summer sun
Breaks through the clouds
as our secrets,
fall straight to the ground.
All the days we spent in bed
just watching TV
and all the nights
where we barely got any sleep.
Under the blankets,
it's like I'm in a different world
with you
and you alone.
The way the sparks fly,
the way my eyes can see directly into yours
makes missing life and spending all my time with you,
a thing worth fighting for.
I love it when our faces touch
and against each other,
our skin rubs.
As we lay awake,
your head rests
upon my chest.
Thinking how lucky I am
to call you mine,
I kiss you on your scalp
and I whisper 'good night'
No matter how many times you eat all our ice-cream
off the cone when I'm not looking.
No matter how many times you push me in the pool.
