We all love reading his beautiful words on Twitter. Thank you for writing and sharing your Valentine’s Poem. ~Susi
VALENTINES DAY – I’M RUBBISH AT ROMANCE
I have not bought you chocolates and flowers
I have not reserved a dinner table
I have not bought you a romantic card
I have not booked a night away
I have not done any of these things
Other loves will share their valentines
Other loves will sip bubbly champagne
Other lovers will exchange tokens
Other loves will declare and claim
I have not bought you chocolates and flowers
I have bitten your neck while caressing your shoulder and held you under shooting stars. I have carved your name on a tree and told the tree that I have given you my soul. I have talked with you until the dawn and been inside your body and your mind. I have kissed your book in a supermarket queue and written poetry about you with tears falling from my brutal eyes. I have bought you a dress to watch you dance and to rip it from your body to hear you gasp and sigh – I remembered your words to lull my soul to sleep. I have bathed you surrounded by candles and held your hair tight in a fist while kissing you with the awesome force of a storm. I have told you my secret childhood dreams and watched you sleep praying that you will be in my life forever. I have lit a candle in a Parisian church and looked to the heavens when rain fell knowing your heart is mine. I have seen you grow in confidence and experience and have tasted the forever juice of your beautiful memories.
I have fucking loved you with a force beyond anything I have ever known and with a desire I did not believe could exist
I have not bought you chocolates and flowers
Because
I love you
And my life is your Valentine
