"Valentine"
The whole is always greater than the sum of its parts
My love is a living testament that we will never all apart
Conjoined by a similar path what would define our fate
A vision of love is what I remember on our first date
To muster up the courage of caressing your lips
The passion of two souls magnified by your kiss
One day you will realize how much I care for you
Unless you leave me sitting in the dark singing the blues
Crying late at night contemplating on suicide
But I fail to remember who has always been by my side
Coming to grips with my past has never been easy
Thank you for being my friend, especially when I need thee
What does not kill you only makes you stronger
Allow your arms to be my protection a little longer
Though at times I exhaust all hope when I decide to terminate our discourse
Never waver in times of tears trickling down your cheek my horse
Although I’m not the prefect man I hope I’m the man perfect to fit a queen
The one and only love also known as the most beautiful girl I have ever seen
Please forgive me for my selfishness that consumes my empty heart
Let’s stay together until death do us part
Who would have known that almost two years later we would be together
Being constantly reminded from our peers if in fact this is forever
My father once told me that the truth is within our own conscience
So for us to part ways is complete nonsense
Dear God I may be wrong to question the power of prayer
But if my love and I remain together then it’s more than a game of truth or dare
Hold me and never let me go into the wilderness alone
Let’s turn a house into a happy home
A mutt or two may be the proper ingredient to the recipe
But of course nothing will compare to you lying next to me
At times I admit I feel hopeless and uncertain of what the future lies
To me there is you and nobody else and I mean that to the day I die
Be my bullet proof vest that secures me from all social unrest
The safe haven of my life when there is no direction in sight
The occipital component which can see all of me and you know it
The voice of reason when one decides to turn to God during the four seasons
The sunshine of my life that with ever smile lights up an image of my future wife
The cornerstone of my own existence is forever etched in my heart
Together nobody can stop us because you and I are a work of art
When times get hard always remember you will never be replaced
Because a jewel is always very hard to misplace
People come and go but there are those who will never be forgotten
The apple never falls far from the tree hopefully it is not rotten
If a picture is worth a thousand words then one word comes to mind
A beautiful symphony of endless love is very hard to find
In retrospect you told me you prayed to God to show you what love is like
Now tell me is it everything you dreamt of or should I just take a hike?
Despite the flaws I embody there is absolutely nobody who accepts me like you do
Through good and bad, rough and sad there is no one I would rather have
When times and hairs are gray I know my girl will only be a step away
It’s the days that seem very uncertain when you see the person for what their worth
So for all the times you said money would change me you may have to wait for a rebirth
If throughout this poem it helped you get through the day
I feel blessed to say that my words did not leave you in disarray
Finding comfort in my words is just a matter of time
Until one day you can look me in my face and see your valentine
