Love Poem

Sweetheart!

Before all the forged vows that you shall take,

Let me warn you of all the veiled dangers for my love sake.

Though autumn blooms in our garden of love;

There will soon be clouds that hover above.

So Darling I tell you this so you don’t lose hope,

The deceptive roses and intricacy that you have to cope.

I hope you know that beauty is only skin deep,

For all that superficial you love is nothing but weak.

There will be days I will take you by surprise;

But all the irksome days will make you wonder if you have wedded the right wife!

Though beauty can wither with age and time,

My soul will always love you right.

I know there will always be prettiness around;

So spare me the days I become timid of losing you to the crowd.

There will always be reasons to walk away,

When conversations become hard or miles apart we lay.

Remember the reasons why we took this risk;

Because only love will last even when the lust will end.

The negatives will make you want to walk off;

The generation we belong to gets bored in the short span of a cough.

Let time and patience play its role,

When we sound absurd to each other or insecurities take a toll.

Days that I will be warm and cozy, times I cook,dance and love you to no end..

Never take it for granted, for there will be days I will be fanatical with tantrums and taunts that are not really meant.

You will encounter the silly anger and frustration.

I haven’t changed honey! they are the phases of life and their variations.

May we never forget the small things we did while courting each other.

To make this forever exciting will require a few surprises and some effort.

Never lose that youthful spirit  that had made you bend down not caring of the people who looked.

May we always find time to lose our minds like the first time that we had hooked.

More than a lover may I always be your best friend;

The one you want to reveal all your secrets or talk about the scores of your favorite match at length.

Our work and career  may change places in the priority chart.

But let love inspire us to work even more hard;

Let us never make them the reasons for strolling away

From achieving our individual dreams, may we never sway.

To learn and explore together will always be the aim;

Like toddlers to school may we grow up each day with no societal shame.

Money is transient, it will come and go;

Let not gifts and luxuries define our relationship goals.

What will last is this relation and memories that we will cherish;

When we are sitting in the backyard where my carnations flourish .

Let us be the pillar of strength for one another;

The anti depressant that will make it easy to go further.

When our bodily organs have given up on us;

A loss of sight , sound when to the bed we sulk.

Let us experience oblivion that we are old;

To rejoice the time we have left on this earth untold.

A second childhood, embarrassing moments like the time we may wet our pants;

Let us happily serve each other ,make it hard for the pain to take its stand.

Babe its sad how we will not depart as souls together;

But may the one left behind not be weakened or bound by the fetter.

Love is selfless it will for sure be happy to see you move on.

Even if it means letting you go and the heart is piercingly torn.

May you nurture as a person and make me more proud.

We will raise a toast to the years together ;

No matter how distant ,imagine the “I love you” that I would always shout.
