Valentine

In the realm where love intertwines with gain, Bouquets and brands, a capitalist's terrain. Gucci labels and bags, symbols of might, Love's currency measured in material delight. Flowers exchanged for moments in time, A transactional love, a capitalist paradigm. Dubai's allure, a destination grand, An investment in passion, a capitalist's hand. In the marketplace of affections, a lucrative trade, Intimacy priced, where transactions are made. Love becomes a commodity, a lucrative blend, A capitalist benefit, where desires transcend. Yet, beneath the surface, a paradox unfurls, For love isn't confined to material swirls. In the balance of wealth and emotions, we see, The complex dance of love and capitalism's decree. South Africa's tale, a fusion of hearts and gain, Where love's richness isn't solely in the material lane. In this capitalist romance, let hearts find their say, For true connection transcends the price we pay.
