Giving Cupid a Headache
R.O.D Valentine’s Day Cash Prize Contest
Our Love Story
Locked beyond the gates of time
To grasp you
Sets me free
Yet, blank pages
fill my romance book
Untethered
Eluding me
💘💘💘💘
I rejected you at first
I know
An unwanted romantic suggestion
But without having met you then
a blind date?
Out of the question!
💘💘💘💘
Fate must have been entertained
at my initial angry display
Because time froze
and everything changed
when I saw you that destined day
💘💘💘💘
My heart was starved and barren
You were —
a tempting buffet for one
My soul reached out
to connect with yours
but you ran
and I was shunned
💘💘💘💘
Our love song played
a complex tune
Fate pressed play
but played on mute
Ready or not
here I come
Poor darling
You didn’t see me coming
💘💘💘💘
Invited or not
you drew me in
To orbit your world
with broken wings
And just like that
our story unfolds
With a jagged hook
and a lured soul
💘💘💘💘
Too starved for you
to take it slow
Oh?
Became oh, oh, ohhhhh!
We made a home
built for two
You are proof
that dreams come true
💘💘💘💘
In vibrant brush strokes
days collide
Inside me
your love bombs IGNITE
A masterpiece
in shades of ‘we’
We wove new life
through our love story
💘💘💘💘
Two worlds became one
‘We’ became ‘three’
My dreams transcend
r e a l i t y
A gift is forged
part — you
part — me
Our legacy
Our family…
