Everywhere I Go
/
Every where I go, my heart
is tethered to you.
Your flowering colors,
your native sky,
your flamingo elegance.
Even the sweltering heat
hugging my skin is
the nearness of you,
though I fear my clothes
drenched in sweat
will displease you.
I can think of a thousand
reasons you might turn away
but my heart remains yours.
I’ve already given
all my tomorrows
to the secret heaven
where you flourish.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
