A Valentine's Day whisper
lingers in the air,
ripples through our spirit, bare,
defining love with each heartbeat
two souls to forever meet.
Magnetic forces
bound each heart to heart,
depths of despair test the thread,
through shifting tides
we reconnect
like magnets drawn,
eternal love,
your soul and mine.
