XOXO (Sonnet)

Not everyone can understand our love
the way my heart burns when I see your smile
my breath rushes like I’ve just run a mile
I want you to cherish me, my beloved
like the time I left you, that pretty dove
when you found it (I saw), you screamed, “how vile”
I admit, the bloated thing, smelled like bile
no need to take the main street home—sort of.

Don’t change your habits and skip morning runs
keep getting that coffee, strong with two creams
I like to watch you (so don’t hide from me)
dry your tears, watching you cry isn’t fun
drop the charges (enjoy red color schemes?)
say you love me—and don’t make me angry
