Romance

The need to feel the magic,
to have the make believe.
the velvet touch a notch above,
what love could actually be.

The scents and sounds that make hearts pound,
the lace and bows untied.
the two days off to just get lost,
and sleep under the stars at night.

the bedroom spread in petals,
with candles all a glow.
the bathtub filled with bubbles,
music soft and low.

little notes left to form a path,
to a letter on the bed.
confessing all the love he shares,
and dreams inside his head.

the text to say I love you,
and flowers left on her desk.
the coffee and car warm in the midst of a storm,
kisses so soft on her neck.

to just hold her hand or in the rain with her dance,
a little romance in her life.
a whisper of thank you for all that you do,
I love you for being my wife.
