You and Me, Again

too original to accept flowers
your love tank fills by the hour 
'tis I, the wonder of your dreams
confessing to a bed of such steams. 
You, of milk chocolate-like coloured eyes 
mesmerize these thoughts of mine,
I could never neglect all that we've become.
My oh my, we're still quite sparked to flame,
who knows when we will be put out?
But before then,
could you do me the honour,
cherish this moment in time
laced with clothing of pure-white
lie here in candle-lit paradise
all food favourites and the dry red wine
televised scenes just like old times,
indulge with me, on me, this evening,
as my Valentine.
