Love and Attention You and I Deserve

Do not steal from us the love and attention you and I deserve Despite the way my innermost thoughts you paraphrase Let us nourish and brandish the love we serve and preserve. Stand firm in the face of challenges you and I attempt to unnerve In settings and circumstances a daze praises in our catchphrase Do not steal from us the love and attention you and I deserve. Would rue the day for expediency’s sake we abandon the verve Love manifestations in their majesty and splendor appraise Let us nourish and brandish the love we serve and preserve. When the most sublime commitment we invest in affections we observe In circumstances and contexts that set us ablaze Do not steal from us the love and attention you and I deserve. Despite insuperable obstacles and hurdles let’s conserve Energy and synergy against all odds to amaze Detractors as we nourish and brandish the love we serve and preserve. In the end, it’s up to you and I to negotiate the last crucial curve To turn the corner and emerge triumphant from the haze of the penultimate maze Where we enthuse, ‘Do not steal from us the love and attention we deserve Because we nourish and brandish the love we serve and preserve.’
