~ Wilt Thou Be My Valentine ~
 
The nectar of thy kiss be love
Warm, radiant, golden, sweet
I vow by moon and stars above
Without your love I'm incomplete

All the days of love are numbered
So, too, our days upon this earth
Love should not arrive encumbered
Instead, emerge like spring's rebirth

Tomorrow may not hold our names
So let our love be free to grow
No silly, childish, schoolgirl games
Just steady ebb of high and low

Forget-me-nots too soon forget
They droop and wither on the vine
My heart's in bloom, without regret
Wilt thou be my Valentine?
