I present my heart

I present to you my heart
warm and beating waiting
for you to cherish and hold
it until the end of time
 
I only ask that you handle
it with care like it was made
of porcelain glass for it
can break as easily

  9. A romantic gesture can end in heartbreak. I love how you condensed such a huge emotion into a 44-word quadrille, Maria.
