"Why?"

A toothy grin plus a peck
No care about slightly chapped lips
Or breath from the dinner
Fixed as a surprise

A slight tug on hair
From fingers wrapping around
Absentmindedly touching
Confortable silence, content to just sit

Pieces of cake saved for the other
After a birthday party
Sometimes it's the best present
Little slices say a lot

Words warm the air
Heated against salty tears
The next day brings a handmade card
A frowny face and I'm Sorry

February 14th
Hands clasped in the car
Out of tune singing peppered with laughter
No chocolates needed

A foolproof plan
A first date revisited
A bended knee
A sealing kiss

"Because I love you."
