In the way you watch at the window waiting for me to arrive home
coming out to walk me in when the path is icy
flowers for no particular reason except that you love me
and my favorite wines that just appear
The special nickname reserved only for me
and I love you spoken many times over each day
letting me watch a series over and over without complaint
and finding tear jerker movies for us to share
Reaching out to me with texts and calls throughout the day
and understanding my need for silence after stressful work
making sure I have all that I need and so much more
and keeping me safe always
Making me laugh so many times in a day
easing my fears no matter what they may be
happiness in an overflowing heart
my forever valentine
