She is my flute, delicate and true,
Her whispering notes, like morning dew.
When she plays her tune, my heart takes flight,
In her harmonious embrace, I find delight.

He is my guitar, strumming my core,
His chords of affection, I cannot ignore.
With every pluck, my heartstrings sing,
Together we create, a love everlasting.

Like violins, our emotions rise,
Painting a canvas of love before our eyes.
And as the drums beat, our passion’s fire,
Our souls dance freely, soaring higher.

Her eyes, a piano, playing a song,
A tale of devotion, sweet and strong.
With every touch, a new note is born,
In the music of love, we are forever sworn.

He is the trumpet, bold and clear,
His love’s call, dispels every fear.
With every sound, our love takes flight,
In harmonies of affection, we find the light.

In this symphony of love, we are complete,
Musical romance of two hearts, endlessly sweet.
Together, our love forever will endure,
In this song of devotion, so true and pure.

In the game of blame, shadows cast deceit,
Accusations fly, truth held in retreat.
Pointing fingers quick, without a care,
Innocence lost, burden hard to bear.

The mirror of honesty shattered in rage,
Deflecting one’s errors, a dangerous stage.
Unaware of the harm we inflict,
Without empathy, our bonds grow weak.

Seeking truth’s refuge, we must embark,
To heal the wounds caused by blame’s cruel mark.
With open hearts and minds aglow,
The path to forgiveness, we will come to know.

Before accusing, let us dare to inquire,
Understanding blooms when we do not conspire.
For hasty judgment clouds our sight,
Look and grasp the facts, reclaim the light.

Break this cycle, lay blame to rest,
Find strength in admitting, we are not always best.
In unity, we can mend the fray,
Restore the harmony that has slipped away..

With humility’s embrace, we will find our way,
To grow and learn from the mistakes we display.
The blame game’s end, compassion’s embrace,
Truth and forgiveness, a path we will retrace

Check out my colors so bright,
And junction where hearts take flight like a kite,
Where overflowing joy cascades,
In laughter’s chorus, it serenades.

A symphony of smiles and glee,
Embracing hearts, wild and free,
Each moment, a dance of delight,
In the day and the starlit night.

Like a river’s gentle flow,
Love and laughter, they bestow,
A tidal wave of pure elation,
Binding souls in sweet sensation.

In the warmth of friendship’s glow,
Overflowing joy will always grow,
Cherishing the bonds we share,
Forever floating in the air.

My love, let us revel in this cheer,
In moments that are bright and clear,
With overflowing joy we find,
The magic of life, intertwined.

I came, I saw and met a MONSTER
He treated me like WHATEVER
I nearly pulled the TRIGGER
I walked around like a SUCKER
Thankfully I found a foster LOVER
He drew me CLOSER
and treated me like a TREASURE

I came, I saw and met with TORTURE
His plan for me was to SLAUGHTER
His house was that of HORROR
His anger more like the THUNDER
Thankfully, I met his DAUGHTER
She confronted him like a FIGHTER
and treated me like a TREASURE

I came, I saw and met a CHARMER
I cried a lot on his soothing SHOULDER
He restored my LAUGHTER
Immediately I forgot I was once a LOSER
He planned my DEPARTURE
Right inside his HELICOPTER
and opened a new CHAPTER
He is Forever my WONDER.
