Valentine

Embers of love glisten like the stars in winter’s solace.
Nurtured by the winds of validation.
A testament of our strength as one.
To keep fighting for warmth and longing;
Our embers will never cease trying.
To reignite the fire that was lost through the cold and loneliness.
I give you my chiseled heart to lay upon your embers.
My love, my person, on Valentine’s day.
