Be My Valentine

roses and hearts

Beautiful doesn’t describe the way you look tonight.
Even the stars are dimmer when in your presence!

Music flows from your hypnotic lips, each word cultivated to make me
Yearn for the future- our future- if you would be mine.

Visions swim before me of fancy date nights, and summer walks
Along the river, soaking in the moonlight and making
Love beneath the willow trees.
Eons wouldn’t be long enough for me to experience your glory,
Nor to worship you as desperately as you deserve.
Time is a fickle thing, so I’ll ask you plainly
If you would accept these roses and be my Valentine.
Not only will you make me the happiest person alive, but I’ll make sure that,
Eventually, you’ll understand what it means to be truly loved.

Since then, Erynn has self-published three poetry collections (By the Bones, Transfiguration, and Into the Western Sky) through Amazon. She also writes and publishes plenty of individual poems on her website, and her work has appeared in the Talon Literary Magazine, the Beautiful Poetry anthology by Silent Sparks Press, the #AmWriting anthology by the Wayne Foundation, and Life Blood: A Collection of Vampire Tales by Gary Hill. Erynn is also the creator and host of the Present Poetry Podcast, where she reads and celebrates a different poet every week.
