let’s share this together,
valentine,
petals
more
than
deep blush
at your sip,
at my touch
see how
we’ve changed
the color
of us
yellow sunset to
crème de violette,
turn me
scarlet,
valentine
your elderflower,
my honey,
mix better
than wine—
let’s
take our time,
no rush,
moonblue to
citrus spice—
cool,
until touched,
see how
we’ve changed
the color
of us
