DOUX ET ÉPICÉ

I’m trying to have my bed scented with your fragrance,

While having conversations about our future together.

Kissing you in between sentences just because I find your lips to look and taste amazing,

Have you losing your thoughts like "what was I saying?"

Then I’ll glide my fingers along every inch of your being,

Until they slide into your slippery pride causing your body language to start speaking.

Expletives you express vocally complimenting your moaning, 

As my tongue traces where the fingers went scoping.

See my intentions are to explore every element of you,

 And appreciate you in ways that no man ever could do.

Love you for who you are and everything that you’re not,

Like how you loved me for who I was when I started at naught.

So I proceed to infuse your essence with my endowment,

Investing in this moment granted to us with precision.

See this is not a trial, I'm looking to balance all of the equations,

So we can profit and I can provide you with income.

Shower you with blessings that you have never thought of,

Go on trips to places that we have never heard of.

But for now, you're in my bed scenting it with your fragrance,

And we're having conversations about our future together.

 

THE VOW

The journey we have had that led to this moment
Is one that I will not regret.
Memorable threads of highs and lows
Are treasures that cannot be spent.

You have peeled back layers of me
The world has never been privileged to see.
I am reserved out there, yes, but in our atmosphere
I will continue to give you all of me.

Because I never dreamed that this would be my next chapter,
Finding a soul so pure even when the world was so cold.
Where love was conquered despite 2020’s disasters
Yet somehow when I look into your eyes I see my home.

So as I stand here before you, teary eyed,
Ready to experience life’s journeys facing triumphs and fights,

I’d have it no other way than with you by my side
Intentionally how it was designed.
